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. A 30:1 ratio means students need to be deliberate about getting faculty time. Being a for-profit short-program school 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. The undergraduate body is just 329, 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 329 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price averages $29,881 annually, so cost is the first thing to weigh here. The gap between the $0–30k and $110k+ bands is narrow ($30,297 versus $36,052), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. 40% get grants, which means the net price above will not apply to most applicants. About 47% borrow federally, roughly the national pattern.
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 | $30,297 |
| $30–48k | $33,522 |
| $48–75k | $35,036 |
| $75–110k | $36,052 |
| $110k+ | $36,052 |
