An acceptance rate of 23% means admission is the exception — plan accordingly. Only 283 students applied, so treat these rates as directional — small pools swing sharply between cycles. About 33% of admitted students enroll, a yield in the normal range. The score bands below cover the middle 50% of the enrolled students who submitted a score — not the whole class, and not a cutoff.

Test score bands (middle 50% of submitters)

These bands describe the enrolled first-years who submitted a score, not the entering class. Where most students apply test-optional the submitters are a self-selected, higher-scoring group.

Completion is the problem here: 24% graduate within six years. Just 48% of first-years come back — most of the completion gap opens in year one. The two rates sit near each other: few students who return for a second year are missing from the six-year completion figure. A 22% transfer-out rate accounts for part of that gap: those students left for another institution rather than dropping out, and the graduation rate above counts them as non-completers here. The 10:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24

Net price lands at $21,149 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. The income table below is the number that matters — $18,503 at $0–30k versus $27,591 at $110k+. Grant aid reaches 76% of students at an average of $8,180. Most students borrow — 56% take federal loans to cover the gap.

Net price by family income

The same students as the headline above, limited to those who received Title IV federal aid — a narrower group, with a lower overall average. IPEDS publishes no combined figure across these bands, so they should not be averaged into one.

Family income band Average net price
$0–30k $18,503
$30–48k $23,308
$48–75k $20,154
$75–110k $21,853
$110k+ $27,591
