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 is weak: only 56% of full-time first-years return, so roughly two in five leave after one year. A 18:1 ratio is unremarkable; expect a mix of lecture halls and seminars. As a for-profit short-program school, outcomes here deserve a harder look than the sector average suggests: for-profit institutions vary enormously, and the sector's aggregate numbers hide both strong and very weak performers.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 106 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Average net price after grant aid is $24,162 a year — mid-range for a four-year institution. Net price varies modestly by income — $25,283 at $0–30k against $31,199 at $75–110k — so the average is a fair guide for most families. About 58% get grants averaging $6,452, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. Most students borrow — 71% take federal loans to cover the gap.

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.
