Why it is good
Nothing stands out as clearly better than similar colleges.
Why it is bad
- Only 45% of students graduate. 82% of certificate schools do better.
- Debt is heavy for the pay: graduates owe a typical $20,152 in federal loans against earnings of $40,449.
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.
