Academics
This institution reports no six-year graduation rate. The federal measure only follows first-time, full-time students, so schools built around part-time or transfer enrollment often fall outside it entirely. 55% first-year retention is low enough to be the defining risk of enrolling here. A 20:1 ratio is unremarkable; expect a mix of lecture halls and seminars. This is a for-profit short-program school. That is not disqualifying, but it does mean verifying accreditation, transferability of credits, and job-placement claims directly rather than trusting the category. The undergraduate body is just 490, which shapes everything from class size to how often a required course is offered.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 490 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
At $8,935 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. Net price swings hard on family income here, from $7,575 at the $0–30k band to $16,085 at $110k+. Only 36% of students receive grant aid, so most families are paying near the published price. Federal borrowing reaches 30% of students.
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.

| $30–48k | $9,837 |
| $48–75k | $12,085 |
