Universidad Ana G. Mendez-Cupey Campus

What is the cost of studying for a year at Universidad Ana G. Mendez-Cupey Campus?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition at Cupey is $5,750, with $2,000 in required fees. Together, those published charges total $7,750 for an academic year before books, transportation, food, housing, and personal expenses. The reported in-state and out-of-state tuition amounts are the same.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees, 2024-25: $7,750.
• Part-time undergraduate tuition, 2024-25: $205 per credit hour, before applicable fees.
• Full-time graduate tuition and required fees, 2024-25: $4,652; program-specific charges may differ.
• Part-time graduate tuition, 2024-25: $221 per credit hour, before applicable fees.

Because the university does not provide undergraduate campus housing in the reported housing information, a student's living costs will depend substantially on their own arrangements. Do not add a hypothetical room-and-board charge to tuition and present the result as an official campus bill. Ask for the current cost-of-attendance budget used by financial aid; it should distinguish charges paid to UAGM from estimated expenses paid elsewhere.

Aid changes the picture but is not the same as a tuition discount for everyone. In the reported aid figures, all counted students received some form of financial aid, and 58% received student loans. Average net price for families with annual income up to $48,000 is reported at $9,883; that measure includes estimated attendance costs after grant and scholarship aid, not just the university bill. Eligible students may seek federal grants and loans, applicable Puerto Rico assistance, institutional awards, or veteran education benefits. Completing the required aid application and reviewing the individual award notice is essential: a loan must be repaid, while grant eligibility and net price vary by student.

What are the work-study opportunities at Universidad Ana G. Mendez-Cupey Campus?

Students considering paid work should distinguish Federal Work-Study from an ordinary part-time job. Work-Study is need-based federal aid earned through an eligible job; an award is not a cash payment upfront or a guarantee that a suitable position will be available.

Applicants can ask UAGM's financial-aid office whether Work-Study funding and positions are available for their enrollment term, how eligibility is determined, and where openings are posted. For other campus or local jobs, they should ask about schedules that fit their classes. An internship may provide career experience but is not automatically paid or funded through Work-Study; Cupey does not report an internship requirement for all students.

Career support is a separate question from student employment. Students seeking help with a résumé, interview preparation, internship search, or employer introductions should confirm which UAGM career services are currently offered to Cupey students and whether appointments are available in person or online. No job-search service should be mistaken for a verified job-placement outcome.
