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. Retention is weak: only 53% of full-time first-years return, so roughly one in two leave after one year. A 20:1 ratio is unremarkable; expect a mix of lecture halls and seminars. This is a for-profit short-program school. That is not disqualifying, but it does mean verifying accreditation, transferability of credits, and job-placement claims directly rather than trusting the category.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 64 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $20,776 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. Net price varies modestly by income — $20,319 at $0–30k against $24,356 at $75–110k — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Grant aid reaches 52% of students at an average of $4,545. 47% of students take federal loans, a middling borrowing rate.
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.
