Read this first: this is the 2022 register
Everything here is as the Ministry of Education's register (SNIES) stood on 8 July 2022 — the latest version the ministry has released under an open licence. Institutions, programmes and accreditations have changed since; check snies.mineducacion.gov.co for the current position before you apply.
“High-quality accreditation” (acreditación de alta calidad) is a voluntary accreditation granted by the ministry for a fixed number of years, on top of the registration every programme must hold. An accreditation whose term has ended may have been renewed since.
No enrolment, fees or admission figures: the ministry's current statistics and tuition values are published under terms that forbid commercial reuse, so they are not here.
All 361 registered seats, by department
300 institutions and 61 branch seats (seccionales), each registered separately and listed under the department where it sits.
