Academics
75% of students finish within six years, putting completion well above the national norm. First-year retention of 82% shows the cohort holds together through the hardest year. At 20:1, class sizes land in the normal range for an undergraduate institution. Being a for-profit two-year institution is the single most useful context for these numbers — the sector's spread is wide enough that the school-level figures matter more than usual. This is a small school — 321 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 321 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price after grant aid is $25,608 a year — mid-range for a four-year institution. Income makes less difference than usual: $25,889 at $0–30k, $32,464 at $110k+. Grant aid reaches 58% of students at an average of $7,105. Most students borrow — 89% 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.
| Family income band | Average net price |
|---|---|
| $0–30k | $25,889 |
| $30–48k | $27,582 |
| $48–75k | $28,605 |
| $75–110k | $30,193 |
| $110k+ | $32,464 |
