Academics
This institution reports no six-year graduation rate. The federal measure only follows first-time, full-time students, so schools built around part-time or transfer enrollment often fall outside it entirely. Retention is strong at 92%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. The 12:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. This is a for-profit short-program school. That is not disqualifying, but it does mean verifying accreditation, transferability of credits, and job-placement claims directly rather than trusting the category. The undergraduate body is just 153, which shapes everything from class size to how often a required course is offered.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 153 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay $29,541 a year on average after aid, a premium price that the earnings data has to justify. Net price varies modestly by income — $29,333 at $0–30k against $33,986 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Grant aid reaches 51% of students at an average of $4,495. Borrowing is widespread: 61% take federal loans.
Entering first-year students
A different, smaller group than the rates above: full-time students in their first year of college anywhere. The grant series here also excludes the "other sources" counted in the all-undergraduate figure, so the two are not comparable.

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 | $29,333 |
| $30–48k | $28,564 |
| $48–75k | $30,458 |
| $75–110k | $33,034 |
| $110k+ | $33,986 |
