Student:faculty
1:1

This institution reports no six-year graduation rate. The federal measure only follows first-time, full-time students, so schools built around part-time or transfer enrollment often fall outside it entirely. At 1:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. This is a private nonprofit four-year college, so read every rate on this page against that peer group specifically. At 98 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.

No average net price is published here, so the cost side of this page is incomplete. Treat the participation rates as a signal about aid, not about price. 38% get grants, which means the net price above will not apply to most applicants. Federal borrowing reaches 45% of students.

Federal student loans went to 44 of these 98 students, totalling $217,036 — an average of $4,933 each.
