Academics
58% graduate within six years — average, but that average still hides a large group who do not. Retention of 79% means a meaningful slice of each entering class does not return. The two rates sit near each other: few students who return for a second year are missing from the six-year completion figure. At 13:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 2,230 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
At $8,981 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. Net price varies modestly by income — $6,547 at $0–30k against $14,288 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Grant aid is limited — 39% of students receive any. Federal borrowing reaches 43% of students.
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 | $6,547 |
| $30–48k | $7,698 |
| $48–75k | $9,471 |
| $75–110k | $12,364 |
