Students

The student body is small, with slightly fewer than 300 students being enrolled on a given semester. The vast majority (over 95%) of these students are enrolled on a full-time basis: of these, the vast majority also happens to be composed of in-state students. Women dominate the student body with a little over 80% of the total share, and Caucasians constitute more than 90% of the total, with African Americans being the next largest demographic.

There is no on-campus housing available, making all the students daily commuters to and from classes. The campus is located in a fairly large town setting (local population of over 55,000 inhabitants) however, so there is a high probability that students will be able to find a housing option close to campus that makes their studies that much more feasible.
