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. A 11:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. This is a public four-year university, so read every rate on this page against that peer group specifically. At 281 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid

One gap to flag: this institution does not report an average net price, so the figures here describe who receives aid rather than what a year actually costs. Use the school's own net price calculator before comparing it against anywhere else. 43% get grants, which means the net price above will not apply to most applicants. Most students borrow — 61% take federal loans to cover the gap.
Federal student loans went to 171 of these 281 students, totalling $1,279,159 — an average of $7,480 each.
