ZIMCHE published this list of registered universities and accredited programmes in September 2026; its introduction still describes the universities “as of June 2024”. The programmes are those ZIMCHE lists as accredited — they are not a statement of what each university is admitting students to this year.

By level

Levels are our grouping, read from the first words of each programme's name (Bachelor…, Master…, Doctor…, Diploma…). The booklet's own wording is kept, including its spelling of programme names.

What it costs, and what isn't here

ZIMCHE's list gives no fees, entry requirements or student numbers — each university sets its own fees and entry requirements, so check its website.

The facts were re-keyed and arranged by CollegeMatcher: names and mandates re-cased, repeated programme lines counted once, levels grouped, two locations corrected from the booklet's own details, and university websites checked. ZIMCHE reserves all rights in its publications, so only the facts are used here, not its text or layout; contact details are not reproduced.
