Student:faculty
35:1

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. Retention of 72% means a meaningful slice of each entering class does not return. A 35:1 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. This is a small school — 411 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 411 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Net price averages $30,152 annually, so cost is the first thing to weigh here. Income makes less difference than usual: $29,360 at $0–30k, $32,776 at $110k+. 77% of students receive grant aid, averaging $5,328 — common but not automatic. Borrowing is widespread: 65% take federal loans.

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.

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.
