Applicants

Yield rate
69.7%

64% of applicants get in, so the odds favor most reasonably prepared students. Only 190 students applied, so treat these rates as directional — small pools swing sharply between cycles. A 70% yield rate puts this school in the upper range for admits who follow through.

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.

Student:faculty
15:1

No six-year graduation rate is reported for this institution, which is common for schools whose students are mostly part-time, transfer in, or enroll in short programs that the federal cohort measure does not track. Its absence is not itself a bad sign, but it does remove the clearest completion signal. Just 53% of first-years come back — most of the completion gap opens in year one. Part-time retention runs ahead at 73% — a sign this campus supports non-traditional schedules well. A 15:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 335 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Net price averages $30,833 annually, so cost is the first thing to weigh here. The gap between the $0–30k and $110k+ bands is narrow ($30,638 versus $36,357), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. Grant aid is widespread — 99% of students receive it, averaging $6,505. Most students borrow — 95% take federal loans to cover the gap.

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.

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.
