The Higher Education Opportunity Act of 2008 requires that universities make available to current and prospective students important information concerning each institution鈥檚 academic programs, retention rates, graduation rates, crime reports, financial aid procedures and more in an effort to ensure fairness and transparency for all higher education consumers. The 宅男福利社 is committed to providing prospective students, students, their families and the community full disclosure of all consumer information as required by state and federal law.

The laws are intended to satisfy an individual’s right to know and afford the opportunity to make fully informed choices regarding the institutions being reviewed. The 宅男福利社 has developed this page to serve as the central portal for obtaining necessary information about our institution. It is our hope that this concerted effort to provide this data will allow all individuals to access the information they need to make the best college decision possible for them and their future.

Additional information can be found in our and Academic Catalogues.
