  • Trenton Bruce, U.S.A. UVM Testimonio-Treton Bruce, USA

    Universidad de Viña del Mar “I chose to study at UVM because I wanted to learn my Spanish in a country where it was spoken everywhere… I liked that the campus was small and intimate for the students and their professors, and being in downtown Viña was great. Chile was an easy choice, since the [...]

  • Addy Jane Moon, U.S.A. UVM Testimonio- Anddy Monn

    Universidad de Viña de Mar UVM-Chile offered excellent opportunities to see the geography and experience the culture of Chile. The classes offered were small enough to foster great student-teacher and student-student interactions which contributed enormously to the retention of language and vocabulary skills picked up in everyday life outside of the classroom. Also, UVM-Chile made [...]

Where to Study?



At the national level, there are 163 Higher Education Institutions (IES) and 37 of them are located in the Valparaíso Region. The regional university system began in 1925 with the foundation of the Universidad Católica of Valparaiso and in 1929 the Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María is born. There are institutions with a long trajectory and recognized prestige that figure as entities with 30 years old or less, but that really have 100-year history, as they are continuers of entities which legal constitution was amended by the new legislation, as is the case of Valparaiso University and the University of Playa Ancha of the Education Sciences. We can observe a similar situation in other entities such as the Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez, which origin is the Business School of Valparaiso founded in 1953 and that is established as a university in the late 80′s; INACAP, with 43 years experience and DUOC which origins date back to 1968.


To ensure compliance with quality standards in Higher Education, a National System for Quality Assurance in Higher Education in Chile is established, which through the National Accreditation Commission, verifies and promotes the quality of its programs. The CNA provides accreditation to the university institutions for a maximum period of 6 years, after which they return to submit a review. More information: www.cnachile.cl
