Student:faculty
8:1

90% of students finish within six years, putting completion well above the national norm. Retention is strong at 89%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. A 8:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor. At 54 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.

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.
