Academics
The federal six-year graduation rate is not published here — typically because the entering cohort this measure follows is too small or too atypical to report. Treat completion as unknown rather than assuming either direction. First-year retention of 100% shows the cohort holds together through the hardest year. The 25:1 student-faculty ratio is high, so large classes and limited faculty contact should be the expectation. As a private nonprofit short-program school, the relevant comparison is other two-year schools rather than the national average across all institutions. The undergraduate body is just 54, which shapes everything from class size to how often a required course is offered.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 54 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $18,838 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. Income makes less difference than usual: $18,632 at $0–30k, $19,993 at $30–48k. 48% get grants, which means the net price above will not apply to most applicants. Federal borrowing reaches 46% 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.
