Caribbean University-Carolina

Caribbean University-Carolina graduated 5 social work students in the most recent reporting year, placing it #515 of 587 BSW-awarding colleges. Small programs like this one tend to compete on individual attention and placement relationships rather than breadth.

22.8% of students complete their degree, below the 50.4% median across BSW-awarding colleges — worth asking the department about directly. Students who finish take a median of 5 years to do it. Full-time students complete at 26.6% against 13.3% for part-time, so the part-time route takes more persistence at Caribbean University-Carolina.

The average student pays $5,791 a year after grants and scholarships — $2,559 below the $8,350 median across the 17 BSW colleges in Puerto Rico. 80.0% of first-time students receive Pell Grants, a high share that usually reflects a student body with substantial financial need — and a financial aid office practiced at handling it. Net price is the number that matters when comparing programs, not sticker tuition — and because most social work roles are with government or nonprofit employers, graduates are typically eligible for Public Service Loan Forgiveness.
