Academics
No six-year graduation rate is reported for this institution, which is common for schools whose students are mostly part-time, transfer in, or enroll in short programs that the federal cohort measure does not track. Its absence is not itself a bad sign, but it does remove the clearest completion signal. Just 4% of first-years come back — most of the completion gap opens in year one. The 2:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. This is a public short-program institution, so read every rate on this page against that peer group specifically.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 37 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

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.
