Modest institutional aid: 59% of freshmen get a grant from the school, averaging $6,182. Most of what lowers the price here is federal or state money, not the school's own funds.

Blends need-based and merit aid — IPEDS doesn't split the two, so a high number can mean generous merit scholarships, deep need-based aid, or both. Figures cover 27 full-time first-year undergraduates, 2022–23. Source: IPEDS Student Financial Aid.
