Student:faculty
10:1

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. Retention is strong at 93%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. Part-time students fare worse, returning at 82% — relevant if you plan to work while enrolled. At 10:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. This is a public short-program institution, so read every rate on this page against that peer group specifically.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 855 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

At $9,802 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. Net price varies modestly by income — $12,458 at $0–30k against $17,765 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Only 20% of students receive grant aid, so most families are paying near the published price. 20% borrow federally — a low rate, though it covers federal loans only.

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.

$48–75k $17,765
