Academics

Full-time retention
Transfer-out rate
Student:faculty
2:1

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. At 2:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. As a public four-year university, the relevant comparison is other four-year schools rather than the national average across all institutions. At 224 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
