Academics
Six-year completion runs to 67% — students who start here overwhelmingly finish here. First-year retention of 100% shows the cohort holds together through the hardest year. That gap between coming back and finishing is where this school loses people — after the first year, not during it. With 33% transferring out, this functions substantially as a stepping stone. The 13:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 41 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
At $10,651 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. Net price varies modestly by income — $6,300 at $0–30k against $10,977 at $48–75k — so the average is a fair guide for most families. 76% of students receive grant aid, averaging $11,075 — common but not automatic.
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.
