Academics
Six-year completion sits at 55%, meaning about two in five students who enroll leave without finishing. 65% of full-time first-years come back for year two, so about one in three are gone before sophomore year. At 15:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. As a private nonprofit four-year college, the relevant comparison is other four-year schools rather than the national average across all institutions. This is a small school — 1,934 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 1,931 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price after grant aid is $17,698 a year — mid-range for a four-year institution. The gap between the $0–30k and $110k+ bands is narrow ($15,700 versus $22,274), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. Most students get help: 96% receive grants worth $18,524 on average. 29% 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.

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.

|---|---|
| $0–30k | $15,700 |
| $30–48k | $18,198 |
| $48–75k | $22,447 |
| $75–110k | $21,974 |
| $110k+ | $22,274 |
