University of Guam (U.O.G.) is a public land-grant university in Mangilao, Guam. It is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges and offers thirty-four degree programs at the undergraduate level and eleven at the master's level. Of the university's 3,387 students, 94% are of Asian-Pacific Islander ethnicity and nearly 72% are full-time. A full-time faculty of about 180 work at the university.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $9,424/year net price and only $12,500 in median debt, this is one of the more affordable public university options you'll find, and for students tied to Guam or the Pacific region, it offers genuine community and cultural relevance. However, the 42% graduation rate is a real concern — nearly 6 in 10 students don't finish — and median earnings of $33,300 a decade out suggest limited career earnings potential for most graduates. Worth considering if you're rooted in the region, cost-conscious, and have a clear plan to stay enrolled, but go in with eyes open about completion rates.
