Academics
Only 17% finish within six years, so roughly four in five students leave without the credential. Retention is weak: only 33% of full-time first-years return, so roughly two in three leave after one year. Retention and completion are close, which places the gap between entering and finishing almost entirely in year one. With 67% transferring out, this functions substantially as a stepping stone. At 7:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 16 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
At $6,966 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. Net price varies modestly by income — $5,828 at $0–30k against $4,000 at $75–110k — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Grant aid is widespread — 100% of students receive it, averaging $9,494.
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.
| Family income band | Average net price |
|---|---|
| $0–30k | $5,828 |
| $30–48k | $1,243 |
| $48–75k | $7,299 |
| $75–110k | $4,000 |
