Academics
56% graduate within six years — average, but that average still hides a large group who do not. The 9:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. This is a for-profit four-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. The undergraduate body is just 307, 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 271 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price — what students actually pay after grant aid — is $57,004 a year, at the high end of undergraduate cost. Income makes less difference than usual: $57,004 at $0–30k, $57,004 at $75–110k. Only 26% of students receive grant aid, so most families are paying near the published price. Federal borrowing reaches 41% 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.

| $0–30k | $57,004 |
| $30–48k | $57,008 |
| $48–75k | $57,002 |
