Academics
Six-year completion runs to 66% — students who start here overwhelmingly finish here. Retention of 67% means a meaningful slice of each entering class does not return. At 15:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. Being a for-profit two-year institution 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. The undergraduate body is just 140, 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 140 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $23,005 annually once grants are applied. Net price varies modestly by income — $24,102 at $0–30k against $25,946 at $48–75k — so the average is a fair guide for most families. About 51% get grants averaging $5,210, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. Federal borrowing reaches 47% 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.
