Academics
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 strong at 81%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. The 23:1 student-faculty ratio is high, so large classes and limited faculty contact should be the expectation. 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. This is a small school — 1,696 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 1,696 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price averages $28,213 annually, so cost is the first thing to weigh here. The gap between the $0–30k and $110k+ bands is narrow ($27,891 versus $33,351), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. 92% of students get grant aid averaging $4,552, so the published price is a poor guide to what most pay. Borrowing is widespread: 76% take federal loans.
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 | $27,891 |
| $30–48k | $27,791 |
| $48–75k | $29,555 |
| $75–110k | $31,866 |
| $110k+ | $33,351 |
