About This School

Neumann University is a private nonprofit institution located in Aston, Pennsylvania with approximately 1,533 undergraduate students enrolled. Neumann University has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 81%. The average net price after financial aid is $27,804 per year. The graduation rate is 54%, and the typical graduate earns $47,200 within 10 years of enrollment.

Neumann University is a private Catholic university in Aston, Pennsylvania, United States. It is sponsored by the Sisters of St. Francis of Philadelphia.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: a 46% graduation rate means fewer than half of students who start actually finish, which is a real concern worth pressing the school on before committing. On the positive side, median debt at graduation is a manageable $19,630, and the small campus size (under 1,600 undergrads) means you're not getting lost in a crowd, which suits students who want personal attention in a Catholic, values-driven environment. Worth considering if you want a close-knit community and have a clear plan to stay enrolled, but families should ask hard questions about academic support and what's driving that low completion rate.
