If you can get into the national university (pass the test -which is eported to be hard) it's free.  Private schools, Universidad Politecnico Salesiana.  The are in (I know) both Quito and Cuenca.  May be in other cites too, just don't know that.  I would imagine Guayaquil for sure.

The Altillo website lists EC public colleges and universities by region.

Since you plan to be in Quito, look under the section Pichincha, which is the province name.

Thank you guys much appreciated

BTW is the test to get into the national university in Spanish or english?

Spanish is the official language of Ecuador and is spoken by a majority of the population, though thirteen indigenous languages are also recognized, including Quichua and Shuar.

You can find out more here about Ecuador's national university, the Universidad Nacional de Educación:


That the pages are in Spanish should give you a clue.

Oops please note my previous post is linked only to the national university specifically focused on education and more oriented to training teachers.  This link in English is for the Wiki entry for the central national university in Quito:



And here is a page that shows the top universities in Ecuador:

Thank you so much
