| 2024 | 0 | Not reported | Not reported | Not available | Not available |
| 2023 | 412 | 171 | 48 | 41.5% | 28.1% |

Published first-year retention
Connected EF part-D observations concern prior-fall first-time degree/certificate-seeking cohorts assessed a year later. NCES describes persistence or completion; four-year institutions' cohorts are bachelor-seeking. Entry study status remains the grouping even if a student later changes between full- and part-time.
| Entry cohort → assessment | Full-time source rate | Adjusted full-time cohort | Part-time source rate | Adjusted part-time cohort |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fall 2020 → 2021 | 89% · R | 140 | 50% · R | 2 |
| Fall 2019 → 2020 | 82% · R | 93 | 100% · R | 1 |
| Fall 2018 → 2019 | 90% · R | 128 | 100% · R | 3 |
| Fall 2017 → 2018 | 91% · R | 164 | 100% · R | 1 |
Percentages are retained from the source rather than recalculated. R means reported; P means carried forward. Other source flags remain in the evidence. Missing rates remain unavailable and a published 0% remains zero. These are institution-level historical observations, not programme graduation rates, current service-quality rankings or individual predictions.
