What is the acceptance rate at Mitchell College?

How many students attend Mitchell College?

Mitchell College reports total enrollment of approximately 442 students (undergraduate plus graduate) (IPEDS, fall 2024 enrollment). Total enrollment is a useful sizing signal, see the institutional profile for additional breakdowns when available.

How much does Mitchell College actually cost after financial aid?

The average net price at Mitchell College is approximately $30,260 per year. Net price is the total cost of attendance minus grants and scholarships that never have to be repaid, so it is what students actually paid rather than the published sticker price. What families pay varies with income: students from families earning under $30,000 paid about $26,485 on average, and those from families earning $110,000 or more about $35,675. These are averages for students who received federal aid in a prior cohort, not a quote for any individual family. Run the institution's own Net Price Calculator for a figure specific to you.

What is the graduation rate at Mitchell College?

Mitchell College reports a graduation rate of approximately 42% (IPEDS, Graduation Rates 2024 collection: 4-year cohort 2018, 2-year cohort 2021). This measures the share of a prior entering cohort who completed their degree within the federal tracking window. It reflects who enrolls as much as what the institution does, so it is not on its own a measure of teaching quality, and it is not comparable across institutions serving very different students.

How much student debt do graduates of Mitchell College have?

Students who borrowed at Mitchell College left with a median of approximately $25,150 in federal loans, and about 59% of students took federal loans at all. Both numbers matter: a median describes only the students who borrowed, so it reads very differently at a school where most students borrow than at one where few do. Federal loans only, so private and parent borrowing are not included.

How much do graduates of Mitchell College earn?

Median earnings approximately ten years after entry are $39,115 for students who received federal financial aid at Mitchell College. This reflects the mix of programs the institution offers and the students who enroll, not the effect of attending, and it covers aid recipients rather than all graduates.

How should I verify final details about Mitchell College?

CampusPin compiles institutional data from public datasets like IPEDS and the College Scorecard, plus institutional websites and editorial review. Before applying, paying a deposit, or making a final decision, confirm admissions requirements, current tuition, financial aid, deadlines, and program details directly with Mitchell College.

One year after graduating, a later class (2018-20 graduates, measured 2020-21) earned a median $27,007; the two figures describe different graduates, not one class's growth.

Does Mitchell College get a "lower earnings" warning on the FAFSA?

No. In the Department of Education's March 2026 data, which the FAFSA uses now, Mitchell College's graduates' median earnings four years after completing were $46,467, above the $36,709 median for high school graduates aged 25 to 34 in Connecticut, so first-year students who list it do not see the lower-earnings notice. The figure describes the whole institution, not any one program.
