Admissions
Admission is not the constraint here: 100% of applicants are accepted. Only 4 students applied, so treat these rates as directional — small pools swing sharply between cycles. A 100% yield rate puts this school in the upper range for admits who follow through.
Test score bands (middle 50% of submitters)
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.

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. At 7:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. As a private nonprofit two-year college, the relevant comparison is other two-year schools rather than the national average across all institutions. This is a small school — 146 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 146 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
One gap to flag: this institution does not report an average net price, so the figures here describe who receives aid rather than what a year actually costs. Use the school's own net price calculator before comparing it against anywhere else. About 58% get grants averaging $4,764, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. Borrowing is widespread: 66% take federal loans.
Federal student loans went to 96 of these 146 students, totalling $654,140 — an average of $6,814 each.
