Academics
The federal six-year graduation rate is not published here — typically because the entering cohort this measure follows is too small or too atypical to report. Treat completion as unknown rather than assuming either direction. 100% of full-time first-years return for a second year — a healthy figure. At 15:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. Being a for-profit short-program school 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. At 81 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 81 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $20,661 annually once grants are applied. Net price varies modestly by income — $20,021 at $0–30k against $26,491 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Only 44% of students receive grant aid, so most families are paying near the published price. 46% 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
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.
| Family income band | Average net price |
|---|---|
| $0–30k | $20,021 |
| $30–48k | $17,721 |
| $48–75k | $21,412 |
| $75–110k | $25,455 |
| $110k+ | $26,491 |
