The numbers tell a mixed story here: at $15,089/year average net price, this is one of the more affordable paths to a Pennsylvania degree, and median debt of $16,750 is genuinely reasonable. However, the 44% graduation rate is a real concern — fewer than half of students who start here finish, which is worth taking seriously before enrolling. Worth considering if you're cost-conscious and have a clear plan to stay on track, but go in with eyes open about the completion challenges many students face.
