The federal six-year graduation rate is not published here — typically because the entering cohort this measure follows is too small or too atypical to report. Treat completion as unknown rather than assuming either direction. Retention of 70% means a meaningful slice of each entering class does not return. A 16:1 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. This is a small school — 131 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 131 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Average net price — what students actually pay after grant aid — is $29,459 a year, at the high end of undergraduate cost. The gap between the $0–30k and $48–75k bands is narrow ($29,459 versus $21,228), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. Grant aid is limited — 44% of students receive any. Federal borrowing is uncommon here at 5% 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.

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.
