Universal Technology College of Puerto Rico Outcomes

Universal Technology College graduates face challenging financial realities despite completing their technical programs. Median earnings reach just $19,878 six years after graduation, well below the national average for college graduates. With an average net price of $6,326, graduates typically see a debt-to-earnings ratio that consumes about 32% of their annual income if spread over standard repayment terms. The 50.7% employment rate suggests many graduates struggle to find work in their field. Technical college graduates in Puerto Rico often enter healthcare support, computer support, or skilled trades, but the island's limited job market constrains earning potential. Despite the low cost of attendance and 100% institutional grant coverage, this represents a weak return on investment given the earnings outcomes.
