- ✓ 3-year loan default 0.0% — below national benchmark
Academics
A 71% six-year graduation rate is the strongest academic signal on this page. A 17:1 ratio is unremarkable; expect a mix of lecture halls and seminars. As a for-profit four-year institution, outcomes here deserve a harder look than the sector average suggests: for-profit institutions vary enormously, and the sector's aggregate numbers hide both strong and very weak performers. This is a small school — 584 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 584 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $15,215 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. The income table below is the number that matters — $14,652 at $0–30k versus $24,052 at $110k+. Grant aid is widespread — 97% of students receive it, averaging $8,122. Most students borrow — 86% take federal loans to cover the gap.
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 | $14,652 |
| $30–48k | $13,974 |
| $48–75k | $16,789 |
