About This School

Felician University is a private nonprofit institution located in Lodi, New Jersey with approximately 1,754 undergraduate students enrolled. Felician University has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 94%. The average net price after financial aid is $41,315 per year. The graduation rate is 50%, and the typical graduate earns $52,800 within 10 years of enrollment.

Felician University is a private Catholic university with two campuses in the U.S. state of New Jersey, one in Lodi and one in Rutherford. In 2016–17 enrollment was 1,996, with undergraduates comprising around 1,626 students; 21 percent were men and 79 percent were women.

The numbers tell a mixed story here — an 80% freshman retention rate suggests students generally feel supported, but only half actually graduate, which is a real concern worth pressing the school on before committing. At $41,315 per year after aid, the cost is steep relative to median earnings of $52,800 a decade out, though the relatively low median debt of $19,250 at graduation softens that somewhat. Worth considering if you're drawn to a small Catholic campus environment in northern New Jersey and have a clear program in mind — particularly nursing or education, where Felician has stronger footing — but come in with a plan to finish.
