Universidad Autónoma de Centro América (UACA), founded in 1976, is the OLDEST private university in Costa Rica — a comprehensive private university in San José operating through a federation of colleges. ⚠️ Added by curator (collector omission of the country's oldest private university).

Always confirm a university's current accreditation with the named national authority, and that the qualification is recognised in the country where you intend to use it, before enrolling or paying any fees. AlmiStudy records information to help you check — it is not an endorsement.

Why this is free

AlmiStudy is part of AlmiWorld. It is free because its purpose is to help people find their way to education — and the wider project supports the Shamool Foundation, a free school for street children in Lahore (60 students, lunch, books and uniforms provided).
