The numbers tell a mixed story here: a 61% graduation rate means roughly 4 in 10 students who start don't finish, which is worth taking seriously before enrolling. On the positive side, median debt at graduation is a relatively manageable $20,000, and the nearly open admissions make it accessible if your application profile is still developing. Worth considering if you're drawn to a small Catholic campus in Indianapolis and have a clear plan to stay on track — but make sure you understand what support systems exist to help students reach the finish line.
