List of Universities in Peru

The implementation, creation, and oversight of educational activities fall within the purview of the ministry of education. In public universities, tuition is free; nevertheless, students must pay a high price to attend private institutions.

A little over half of the population has a university degree, demonstrating the importance this nation places on its citizens’ education. There are more than 45,000 international students here, many of whom are from the continents of Asia and Africa.

The fact that there are 38 public institutions and 18 private universities is also astounding. Only citizens are eligible for employment; however, international students may work if they obtain a work visa.
