Outcomes Overview
Graduates face significant financial challenges with median debt of $15,500 against earnings of just $24,908 after ten years. This creates a debt-to-earnings ratio of 62%, well above the recommended 10% threshold. Monthly loan payments of $164 consume nearly 8% of typical graduate income. Only 32% of borrowers are successfully repaying their loans. The employment rate of 46% suggests many struggle to find stable work. Catholic universities in Puerto Rico traditionally prepare students for education, social work, and healthcare roles, but the local economy limits high-paying opportunities. With extremely low earnings relative to debt burden, this represents a weak return on investment despite affordable tuition.
