For-profit Community College in York, PA. Six-year graduation rate 45%. Median 10-year earnings $40,672.

Six-year completion sits at 45%, near the national average for undergraduate institutions. Median debt at graduation is $13,426, a light load against those earnings.

- ✓ 3-year loan default 0.0% — below national benchmark
Academics
Six-year completion sits at 45%, meaning about one in two students who enroll leave without finishing. Retention of 63% means a meaningful slice of each entering class does not return. Retention and completion are close, which places the gap between entering and finishing almost entirely in year one. The 9:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. Being a for-profit two-year institution 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.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 868 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price is $14,757 a year after grant aid — low for a four-year institution, though your own figure depends on aid eligibility. Aid is steeply need-based: families in the $0–30k band pay $10,595 while those at $110k+ pay $20,299. 55% of students receive grant aid, averaging $3,556 — common but not automatic. 71% of students borrow federally, so debt is the norm rather than the exception.
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 | $10,595 |
| $30–48k | $11,452 |
| $48–75k | $16,368 |
| $75–110k | $18,009 |
| $110k+ | $20,299 |
