Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable public college experience — at $18,833/year after aid and a median debt of just $15,000 at graduation, the financial picture is genuinely reasonable. That said, the 70% graduation rate and 78% freshman retention suggest a meaningful number of students don't finish, which is worth asking about during a campus visit. Graduates earn a median of $46,700 ten years out, which is modest but manageable given the low debt load.
