Selectivity is real here: only 57% of applicants are offered a place. Only 30 students applied, so treat these rates as directional — small pools swing sharply between cycles. 59% of admitted students actually enroll, which is a high yield by national standards.

Test score bands (middle 50% of submitters)

These bands describe the enrolled first-years who submitted a score, not the entering class. Where most students apply test-optional the submitters are a self-selected, higher-scoring group.

Academics

Full-time retention
56%
Transfer-out rate
33%
Student:faculty
12:1

67% of students finish within six years, putting completion well above the national norm. 56% first-year retention is low enough to be the defining risk of enrolling here. With 33% transferring out, this functions substantially as a stepping stone. The 12:1 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.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 47 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Students pay an average of $10,279 annually, well below typical undergraduate net price. The gap between the $0–30k and $110k+ bands is narrow ($11,602 versus $12,300), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. Grant aid is widespread — 91% of students receive it, averaging $9,462.

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.
