Admissions

73% of applicants get in, so the odds favor most reasonably prepared students. With 355 applicants, admissions statistics here move a lot on small changes. 48% of admitted students actually enroll, which is a high yield by national standards.

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.

Academics

Completion is the problem here: 22% graduate within six years. Retention is weak: only 16% of full-time first-years return, so roughly four in five leave after one year. The student-faculty ratio is 16:1 — typical, which in practice means large lectures early and smaller classes in the major. As a for-profit two-year institution, outcomes here deserve a harder look than the sector average suggests: for-profit institutions vary enormously, and the sector's aggregate numbers hide both strong and very weak performers. The undergraduate body is just 743, which shapes everything from class size to how often a required course is offered.

Financial Aid

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24

Average net price is $11,336 a year after grant aid — low for a four-year institution, though your own figure depends on aid eligibility. Income makes less difference than usual: $10,871 at $0–30k, $14,097 at $48–75k. 98% of students get grant aid averaging $7,880, so the published price is a poor guide to what most pay. 4% borrow federally — a low rate, though it covers federal loans only.

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.
