100% of students finish within six years, putting completion well above the national norm. Retention is strong at 100%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. At 6:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor. This is a small school — 104 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.

Federal student loans went to 55 of these 91 students, totalling $459,622 — an average of $8,357 each.
