About This School

Los Angeles Pacific University is a private nonprofit institution located in San Dimas, California with approximately 1,483 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $22,677 per year. The graduation rate is 21%.

The numbers here tell a concerning story — with only a 20% freshman retention rate and a 33% graduation rate, most students who start here don't finish, which is a serious red flag worth thinking hard about. On the positive side, the median debt at graduation is a relatively low $10,806, and the $20,170 average net price is manageable for a private school. Worth considering only if you have a very specific reason this school fits your goals, but most students should explore alternatives with stronger completion records first.
