The federal six-year graduation rate is not published here — typically because the entering cohort this measure follows is too small or too atypical to report. Treat completion as unknown rather than assuming either direction. Retention of 79% means a meaningful slice of each entering class does not return. At 8:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. As a public short-program institution, the relevant comparison is other two-year schools rather than the national average across all institutions. At 1,263 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 1,142 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

At $14,595 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. Income makes less difference than usual: $16,179 at $0–30k, $16,526 at $48–75k. Grant aid is widespread — 99% of students receive it, averaging $2,676.

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.
