The numbers tell a mixed story here — a Boston location and relatively low median debt of $12,500 are genuine positives, but a 28% graduation rate and 54% freshman retention rate suggest many students struggle to finish, which is a serious concern worth digging into before enrolling. Median earnings of $39,600 a decade out are modest, so if you're considering taking on any loans, think carefully about the return on investment. Worth considering only if you have a clear plan, a strong support system, and are drawn specifically to the small-school Boston experience.
