The in-state tuition gap is the flagship's biggest draw — most in-state families pay far less than the out-of-state sticker. Average net price after aid runs about $13,314/yr. Admission odds depend on your student's GPA and test scores, not which high school they attend.

Enrollment trend & projection

Total enrollment went from 50 in 2018 to 77 in 2022 — over 4 years.
+54.0%
Why only 3 data points?

Private school enrollment comes from the NCES Private School Universe Survey (PSS), which is collected every other year — not annually like public-school data. The most recent published collection is 2021–22; NCES targeted spring 2026 for the 2023–24 release — we'll load it as soon as it's published.

If the recent trend holds…

At its recent rate of +11.4%/year, projecting from 2022's 77 students:
