Only 33% finish within six years, so roughly two in three students leave without the credential. 88% of full-time first-years return for a second year — a healthy figure. That gap between coming back and finishing is where this school loses people — after the first year, not during it. With 67% transferring out, this functions substantially as a stepping stone. A 7:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 177 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price after grant aid is $22,681 a year — mid-range for a four-year institution. Net price swings hard on family income here, from $14,737 at the $0–30k band to $28,651 at $110k+. Grant aid is widespread — 94% of students receive it, averaging $7,336. 76% 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.
