About This School
Atenas University is a private nonprofit institution located in Manati, PR with approximately 597 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $5,818 per year. The graduation rate is 42%, and the typical graduate earns $17,000 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $6,544/year net price and $6,600 in median debt at graduation, the financial burden is genuinely low, which matters. But a 43% graduation rate is a real concern — fewer than half of students who start actually finish — and median earnings of $17,000 a decade out suggest limited career earnings growth for those who do graduate. Worth considering only if you have a clear plan to stay enrolled and a specific career path that makes sense in this local market.
