About This School
Caribbean University-Bayamon is a private nonprofit institution located in Bayamon, PR with approximately 639 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $4,665 per year. The graduation rate is 43%, and the typical graduate earns $21,400 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: the $6,392 average net price and a low median debt of $7,000 make this one of the more affordable private college options you'll find, which is genuinely appealing. However, a 37% graduation rate is a serious red flag — meaning most students who start here don't finish — and median earnings of $21,400 a decade out raise real questions about long-term return on investment. Worth considering only if you have a clear plan to stay enrolled and a specific career path tied to local Puerto Rico opportunities.
