About This School

Inter American University of Puerto Rico-Guayama is a private nonprofit institution located in Guayama, PR with approximately 1,661 undergraduate students enrolled. The school is moderately selective, accepting approximately 49% of applicants. The average net price after financial aid is $8,932 per year. The graduation rate is 39%.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: the remarkably low median debt at graduation ($6,775) and an average net price of under $9,000/year make this one of the more affordable private college options you'll find anywhere. However, the 39% graduation rate is a serious concern — it means fewer than 4 in 10 students who start here actually finish, which is worth examining closely before committing. This is worth considering if you're cost-conscious, plan to stay engaged, and have a clear plan for completing your degree, but come in with open eyes about that completion rate.
