Student:faculty
11:1

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 is strong at 100%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. The 11:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor. At 23 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 23 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

At $13,904 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. Net price varies modestly by income — $8,653 at $48–75k against $11,751 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Most students get help: 91% receive grants worth $6,408 on average. Borrowing is widespread: 65% 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.
