Why it is good

Nothing stands out as clearly better than similar colleges.

Why it is bad

  • Many students leave early: only 61% of first-year students return for a second year.
  • Low pay: typical earnings ten years after starting are $47,186, lower than 81% of four-year colleges.
  • Debt is heavy for the pay: graduates owe a typical $28,750 in federal loans against earnings of $47,186.

The numbers

What these figures measure

Graduation rate: share of all students, full-time or part-time, who finish within 8 years. Return for year 2: share of first-time, full-time students who come back for a second year. Earnings: median pay about 10 years after starting, for students who received federal aid. Debt: median federal loan debt among those who finish. Net price: average yearly cost after grants and scholarships. All from the U.S. Education Department College Scorecard, institution file dated November 2, 2026.

Programs and early earnings

Bachelor's degrees: largest programs

Earnings are the median pay two years after completing, for graduates who were working and not enrolled again. The federal government hides figures for small programs, shown as n/a. Fields are broad groups, so a college may offer several majors inside one.
