Cost Overview

Families typically pay $17,687 per year after financial aid at this specialized health sciences university. Lower-income students with family earnings under $48,000 pay around $16,900 annually, while those from families earning $48,000-$75,000 face $24,250 per year. Over four years, expect total costs between $67,600 and $97,000 depending on family income.

The school serves almost entirely Hispanic students pursuing health careers, with 87% receiving financial aid. Only 20% of students get institutional grants averaging $14,327, but the low federal loan rate of 20% suggests many families pay out of pocket or rely on other funding sources. The 2:1 student-faculty ratio reflects the intensive, hands-on nature of medical education.

Puerto Rico residents get the best deal here since 100% of students come from in-state. Families earning under $48,000 benefit most from the relatively stable net price that doesn't vary much by income at lower levels.
