Outcomes Overview
Graduates face financial challenges with median debt of $9,500 against earnings of $25,827 ten years out. The debt-to-earnings ratio of 37% exceeds the recommended 30% threshold for manageable repayment. Monthly loan payments of $101 consume about 5% of typical graduate income, which is reasonable but tight given the low absolute earnings. The employment rate of 49.1% suggests many graduates struggle to find full-time work in Puerto Rico's limited job market. Most alumni who stay local work in education, healthcare, or government roles that offer job security but modest pay. The combination of below-average graduation rates and constrained local opportunities makes this a weak return on investment.
