About these student measures
The entering-student group includes part-time entrants as well as other attendance patterns.
University of La Verne enrolls 3,050 undergraduates. 51.4% receive Pell Grants, and an estimated 35.2% arrive as transfers or part-time students, so the campus draws from more than one starting point.
The Pell share is a measure of financial access, not a poverty rate or a first-generation count. It describes the proportion of undergraduates using federal grant aid.
Transfer applicants make up a large part of the entering class. Anyone considering that route should review the transfer credit policies for their intended program and use the cost calculator to estimate their own grant-adjusted price.
Of full-time students who start at University of La Verne, 64.5% return for a second year and 63.1% finish within six years. Both figures sit below the peer medians of 83.4% and 68.8% for comparable institutions.
Pell Grant recipients in the same entering cohort complete at 53.6%, which is 9.5 percentage points below the overall six-year rate.
