Cost Overview
Most families pay around $9,000 per year at Inter American University Metro, well below the $20,579 sticker price. Lower-income families earning under $30,000 pay about $8,400 annually, while those making $75,000-$110,000 pay around $13,200. Over four years, expect total costs between $34,000-$53,000 depending on family income. Only 13% of students receive institutional grants, averaging $5,602.
Graduates typically carry $10,975 in debt, translating to $116 monthly payments. With median earnings of $30,821 ten years after graduation, loan payments consume about 5% of gross income. That's manageable compared to many mainland institutions. Two-thirds of students qualify for Pell Grants, reflecting the economic reality of Puerto Rico.
The best deal goes to local families earning under $48,000. They get private university education for less than many community colleges charge elsewhere, with instruction in Spanish serving the island's primary language.
