On November 14, the Secretariat of Higher Education, Science, Technology and Innovation (Senescyt) published a registration guide for students who will seek a place in Ecuadorian universities in 2024, but it has not been confirmed when the registration period begins. We are only talking about tentative dates.

Every November 26 is World Access to Higher Education Day, established to reject the inequalities that exist around the world in terms of access to higher education. This day should be used to remind the new authorities of the need to re-determine the date and for those who will graduate from high school to have clarity about the process of continuing their studies and opportunities.

During his campaign, President Daniel Noboa offered to improve the quality of education and, among other things, an incentive program for universities to create research and development centers with an emphasis on social and technological issues that can be reflected in educational opportunities. fair, integrative and collaborative.

The time of this regime was short (18 months) and in its first actions it showed speed. Education is a priority that must also be addressed, and the first step is to know with certainty the schedule of the enrollment process for each higher education unit.

Senescyt is talking about the end of December and the beginning of January 2024 as an approximate registration date; for social registration on January 30, applications from February 1 to 5 and then grades. However, everything is tentative and this is what must be defined for the sake of clarity for quota applicants.

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) reiterates that equal access to higher education is one of the goals of the Agenda for Sustainable Development until 2030. Another commitment is in sight for the regime that recently started on November 23rd. (OR)
