Student:faculty
22:1

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. Retention of 73% means a meaningful slice of each entering class does not return. A 22:1 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.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 1,949 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Average net price — what students actually pay after grant aid — is $28,513 a year, at the high end of undergraduate cost. Net price varies modestly by income — $28,359 at $0–30k against $33,519 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Grant aid is widespread — 89% of students receive it, averaging $4,358. Borrowing is widespread: 78% 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.

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.
