The numbers tell a concerning story here — a 29% graduation rate and 49% freshman retention rate suggest that most students who start here don't finish, which is a serious red flag worth investigating before committing. On the positive side, median debt at graduation is a very manageable $9,500, and the small enrollment of 583 students means a genuinely personal experience if you do thrive there. Worth considering only if you've spoken directly with current students and have a clear plan for staying on track academically.
