About This School

Inter American University of Puerto Rico-Fajardo is a private nonprofit institution located in Fajardo, PR with approximately 1,149 undergraduate students enrolled. The school is moderately selective, accepting approximately 36% of applicants. The average net price after financial aid is $8,787 per year. The graduation rate is 33%.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: the average net price of just $8,787/year and a median graduation debt of only $5,500 make this one of the most affordable private college options you'll find, which is genuinely significant. However, the 33% graduation rate is a serious concern — it means the majority of students who start here don't finish, and the 69% freshman retention rate suggests many are leaving after the first year. This is worth considering if you have a clear plan, strong support systems, and need to minimize costs, but go in with your eyes open about the completion challenges many students face.
