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. Retention is weak: only 43% of full-time first-years return, so roughly three in five leave after one year. Unusually, part-time retention (58%) beats full-time, pointing to a student body that is part-time by design. At 14:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. As a private nonprofit four-year college, the relevant comparison is other four-year schools rather than the national average across all institutions.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 127 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price after grant aid is $24,076 a year — mid-range for a four-year institution. The income table below is the number that matters — $21,550 at $0–30k versus $31,606 at $110k+. About 65% get grants averaging $5,198, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. 53% 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
