The numbers tell a mixed story here — a 55% graduation rate and 67% freshman retention rate suggest that a significant portion of students don't finish, which is worth taking seriously before committing. On the upside, median debt at graduation is a manageable $14,315, and the small campus of about 1,260 students means you're likely to get real personal attention rather than getting lost in the crowd. Worth considering if you want a tight-knit, faith-connected community and have a clear plan to stay on track, but ask hard questions about academic support during any campus visit.
