The real 4-year cost of University of Puerto Rico-Cayey in Puerto Rico

Published tuition and required fees at University of Puerto Rico-Cayey went from $1,742 in 2008 to $5,324 in 2023, but it moved in large steps rather than a steady climb. Projecting that pattern forward would overstate the cost, so we use a national average of 2.6% a year instead.

Read with care: this school's history shows large jumps in published price, so a smooth projection may not hold.
