Admissions

About 9,869 students applied and 1,947 were admitted. Of those admitted, 649 enrolled.

Cost

Outcomes

Of the 638 first-time, full-time students in the 150% cohort, 90% completed their programme within 150% of normal time. That cohort definition matters: part-time students and transfers are not included, so a college that serves many of them can have a low reported rate while still graduating most of its students.
