Academics
70% of students finish within six years, putting completion well above the national norm. First-year retention is 70% — the single largest point of attrition on this campus. The 36:1 student-faculty ratio is high, so large classes and limited faculty contact should be the expectation. Being a for-profit two-year institution is the single most useful context for these numbers — the sector's spread is wide enough that the school-level figures matter more than usual. This is a small school — 872 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 872 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $27,868 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. Income makes less difference than usual: $27,490 at $0–30k, $33,901 at $110k+. About 78% get grants averaging $5,422, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. Borrowing is widespread: 74% 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.

| $0–30k | $27,490 |
| $30–48k | $27,648 |
| $48–75k | $29,497 |
