The students
60% of undergraduates receive a Pell Grant, the federal grant for students from lower-income families. 60% take a federal student loan. The undergraduate body is 80% women and 20% men. By undergraduate numbers it is number 265 of the 267 colleges in California on this site that report a size; the middle-sized one has 2,759.
What is not reported
The College Scorecard has no figure for an admission rate, published tuition, a net price, the share of students who return for a second year, a graduation rate, earnings of former students or loan debt at Sofia University. That is common for colleges that are small or new, that teach mostly graduate students, or that take few first-time, full-time students, because several measures count only that group. It says nothing by itself about quality. Ask the college directly for the figures that matter to you.
