Student:faculty
5:1

No six-year graduation rate is reported for this institution, which is common for schools whose students are mostly part-time, transfer in, or enroll in short programs that the federal cohort measure does not track. Its absence is not itself a bad sign, but it does remove the clearest completion signal. 67% of full-time first-years come back for year two, so about one in three are gone before sophomore year. At 5:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. As a private nonprofit short-program school, the relevant comparison is other two-year schools rather than the national average across all institutions.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 36 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Students pay an average of $22,316 annually once grants are applied. Most students get help: 97% receive grants worth $3,069 on average. 94% of students borrow federally, so debt is the norm rather than the exception.

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.
