Academics
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. 17% first-year retention is low enough to be the defining risk of enrolling here. Part-time retention runs ahead at 100% — a sign this campus supports non-traditional schedules well. At 25:1, instructor access is thin — worth probing on a campus visit.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 238 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price — what students actually pay after grant aid — is $41,167 a year, at the high end of undergraduate cost. Net price varies modestly by income — $42,776 at $0–30k against $42,776 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Only 29% of students receive grant aid, so most families are paying near the published price. 29% of students take federal loans, a middling borrowing rate.
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 | $42,776 |
| $30–48k | $41,216 |
| $48–75k | $40,539 |
| $75–110k | $41,744 |
| $110k+ | $42,776 |
