About This School

Dewey University-Hato Rey is a private nonprofit institution located in Hato Rey, PR with approximately 244 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $3,577 per year. The graduation rate is 54%, and the typical graduate earns $21,700 within 10 years of enrollment.

Students who are cost-conscious, rooted in the Hato Rey community, and need a small, accessible environment to complete a degree may find this school worth a serious look — but go in with eyes open. The financial picture is genuinely encouraging: average net price runs just $3,577 per year, and median debt at graduation is only $5,185, meaning most students leave without a crushing loan burden. The concern, though, is real — a 54% graduation rate and a 57% freshman retention rate suggest that more than four in ten students who start here don't finish, which is a pattern worth asking the admissions office to explain directly. Median earnings ten years out sit at $21,700, so this is not a path to high salaries, and families should think carefully about whether the degree aligns with specific career goals in the local Puerto Rico job market. Before applying, I'd encourage you to visit, talk to current students about what support actually looks like on the ground, and make sure there's a clear plan — academic and financial — for staying enrolled through graduation.
