Six-year completion sits at 61%, meaning about two in five students who enroll leave without finishing. First-year retention of 97% shows the cohort holds together through the hardest year. The distance between those two figures is the part worth noticing — students return for a second year at a much higher rate than they graduate, so attrition here is spread across the middle years rather than concentrated in the first. At 14:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. This is a for-profit two-year institution. That is not disqualifying, but it does mean verifying accreditation, transferability of credits, and job-placement claims directly rather than trusting the category.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 70 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Students pay an average of $18,476 annually once grants are applied. Income makes less difference than usual: $18,026 at $0–30k, $18,804 at $110k+. Most students get help: 93% receive grants worth $8,412 on average. Most students borrow — 80% 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.
