The University of Puerto Rico-Humacao is a public college in Humacao, Puerto Rico. It is part of the University of Puerto Rico.

UPRH has been accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE) since 1965.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: the $5,500 median debt at graduation is impressively low, making this one of the more financially sensible options in Puerto Rico, but a 53% graduation rate means roughly half of entering students don't finish — worth asking hard questions about support resources before committing.

Strong fit for cost-conscious students with a clear academic direction, especially in the sciences.
