Choosing the ideal university to study an academic program is a very important decision for families and the life project of young people. Despite this, in many regions of the country they do not have many options and have to limit themselves to the educational offer that exists in their community, regardless of whether they have the desired quality.
For this reason, many families and students constantly refer to the university rankings to have a clear picture of which institution of higher education they can choose. This week the U-Sapiens ranking was published, which is a reference for many people.
