About these student measures

The entering-student group includes part-time entrants as well as other attendance patterns.

University of Puerto Rico-Humacao is a public university in Humacao, Puerto Rico, enrolling 2,529 undergraduates. The student body is shaped by two strong currents: a large share of students who qualify for federal grant aid, and a much smaller share who arrive from other institutions.

80.6% of undergraduates receive Pell Grants, a measure of financial access. An estimated 5.8% enter as transfers or part-time students, meaning most students start their bachelor's degrees here.

At University of Puerto Rico-Humacao, 81.3% of full-time bachelor's-seeking students continue into their second year. That share exceeds the median among comparable institutions (same type and size), which is 73.7%.

For the first-time full-time cohort, 47.1% finish a degree within six years. That rate falls below the peer median of 49.1% for comparable institutions (same type and size).

Earning a degree within six years is less common here than at those same institutions. Students who enroll should expect first-year persistence above the peer benchmark and a six-year completion picture that trails it.

With these patterns moving in opposite directions, students should look closely at what happens after the first year.
