These bands describe the enrolled first-years who submitted a score, not the entering class. Where most students apply test-optional the submitters are a self-selected, higher-scoring group.

Academics

Only 0% finish within six years, so roughly nine in ten students leave without the credential. 87% of full-time first-years return for a second year — a healthy figure. 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. 100% of students transfer out, which reframes what the graduation rate above is measuring. The student-faculty ratio is 19:1 — typical, which in practice means large lectures early and smaller classes in the major.

Financial Aid

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 81 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Students pay an average of $9,704 annually, well below typical undergraduate net price. Net price varies modestly by income — $8,929 at $0–30k against $9,705 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. 88% of students get grant aid averaging $8,158, so the published price is a poor guide to what most pay.

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.
