Academics
Six-year completion sits at 46%, meaning about one in two students who enroll leave without finishing. At 13:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. As a for-profit four-year institution, outcomes here deserve a harder look than the sector average suggests: for-profit institutions vary enormously, and the sector's aggregate numbers hide both strong and very weak performers. At 347 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 347 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $23,980 annually once grants are applied. Income makes less difference than usual: $24,225 at $0–30k, $18,899 at $110k+. Grant aid reaches 74% of students at an average of $6,600. 79% of students borrow federally, so debt is the norm rather than the exception.
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.
| Family income band | Average net price |
|---|---|
| $0–30k | $24,225 |
| $30–48k | $17,977 |
| $48–75k | $23,246 |
| $75–110k | $24,908 |
| $110k+ | $18,899 |
