Academics
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. First-year retention of 82% shows the cohort holds together through the hardest year. The student-faculty ratio is 18:1 — typical, which in practice means large lectures early and smaller classes in the major. As a for-profit short-program school, 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.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 638 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $25,457 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. Aid is steeply need-based: families in the $0–30k band pay $23,911 while those at $110k+ pay $32,631. 74% of students receive grant aid, averaging $6,316 — common but not automatic. Most students borrow — 69% 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.

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.

|---|---|
| $0–30k | $23,911 |
| $30–48k | $25,531 |
| $48–75k | $26,650 |
