The BSW Program at University of Puerto Rico-Humacao

In the latest year of federal data, University of Puerto Rico-Humacao graduated 25 social work students, placing it #247 of 587 BSW programs nationally. Cohorts of this size typically mean seminar-scale classes in the practice sequence rather than lecture halls.

61.5% of students here finish their degree, against a national median of 50.4% across the BSW colleges in this directory — a meaningful margin. Students who finish take a median of 5 years to do it. Full-time students complete at 67.6% against 57.4% for part-time, so the part-time route takes more persistence at University of Puerto Rico-Humacao. Transfer students actually outperform first-time entrants here (68.8% vs 55.7%), which is a good signal if you are coming from a community college.

The average student pays $12,523 a year after grants and scholarships — $4,173 above the $8,350 median across the 17 BSW colleges in Puerto Rico. 88.0% 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.

Figures from IPEDS, U.S. Department of Education. Completion and net-price comparisons are against the 618 BSW-awarding colleges in this directory.
