Graduate Student: I had a great experience here. They help you every step of the way, from application to financial aid to study to completion. I took the entire Masters courses in English and they were very helpful throughout the entire process. The work is hard, that is true. I gave up pretty much every weekend in order to fulfill the requirements but I do not regret it one bit. The only con is getting in contact with them is not always easy. Long phone delays sometimes frustrated me. When they fix that, they will be an excellent institution of learning. Kudos on a job well done!... Read 75 reviews

Senior: I think a lot of great professors are taken for granted, by faculty and by students (including myself at one point). I had an amazing time with the research opportunity I had, but I think they should talk more about those opportunities because students are left in the dark. I was able to find it because of another student. I applied to the work and study program for 2 consecutive years and they never contacted me. I even went to the library for 2 weeks, almost everyday, because I was trying to get on a list for a job, and they kept telling me to come back later, until the last day when they told me they had just sent the list and I couldn't get on it. I don't think it's a bad university, but just keep in mind the students have to stay on top of things and insist on what they want/need. The faculty, staff, employees are nice (in my experience) and it has a good program variety.... Read 163 reviews

Junior: The amazing campus, my college students, the opportunity of students associations such as Asociación Círculo Literario Revolución Expresiva, all of my professors, the opportunities to apply for study abroad and internships, the multiple bachelors degrees anyone can apply is what I love most. I need to highlight that anyone can apply for a second mayor or minor which it is very convenient. On another hand, I suggest more transparency of the money administration. Even though we are barely surviving a pandemic, our University should open again for traditional classes which are not being offered at the time but the online ones.... Read 244 reviews

Freshman: It’s a small university. This gave me the opportunity for a more personalized learning experience. The university of Puerto Rico has many campuses throughout the island. My recommendation is that every campus concentrated on a specific career. This allows us to expand the academic curriculum throughout the island and decrease the competition of academic programs from the same University systems. Right now, the campus with more students is in the metro area. Some academic programs are duplicated on this campus, but not offered on the campus far from the city. Although many students are originally from this area. I think the small campus could benefic from this suggestion.... Read 112 reviews

Freshman: I always wanted to study at this university since I was told that in the nursing field they were well prepared. The moment I visited the campus and the nursing department I loved it, it was well prepared and equipped to learn and leave as a professional. From the first day I went for orientation the process was easy and fairly quick. I had to wait a bit for my transcript since I had completed an associate's degree at another institution, but as soon as it arrived they worked through all my admissions via email very quickly. The professors look like they know what they are teaching, they are generally helpful to the student as well as the university itself has different methods to help the student. Overall I am happy that I made the best decision to study at this university.... Read 85 reviews

Graduate Student: After been away from college for twenty five years I decided to enrolled at EDP university for my bachelor's degree in science. Previously, I had an associate degree in nursing at Greater Hartford community college. My experience at EDP college was an exciting, nervous raky and the best experience I had in my life time. The professors were very professional and helpful. They were always willing to guide me in the areas that I needed assistance.

Graduate Student: I graduated this year from Caribbean University and had my bachelor degree Cum Laude on Accounting program. My experience, both, on site and online, was an awesome journey that I started on 1999. I dropped college on 2002 to enlist the Army. On 2020, when the pandemic started, I decided to continue and finish what I started 20 years ago. I enrolled for online courses, for my very first time and it could not be a better experience for me. Back in 1999 to 2002, younger and full of energy, ready to learn how to be an accountant, I had the best teachers ever, that encourage me to give more and more. I felt that they really cared for my future. When I enrolled online on 2020, to my surprise some of my teachers were the same from 1999! And the greatest feeling, they remember me! They went through all the time by my side until the end. I know that I was never a student number, I am Naitza Alicea from the beginning.... Read 22 reviews
