What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0001358) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 106 rated student reviews on file here, averaging 3.9★ — read the full text below before deciding.

Verify before you pay anyone

  • Recognition and licensing rules change over time. Re-check the current NMC-eligible colleges list and this country's regulations for Dominican Republic yourself before paying anything.
  • Never pay an agent or "seat reservation" fee in cash, or before you have a signed offer letter directly from the university.
  • A guaranteed admission, a discounted "management quota" seat, or pressure to decide within 24 hours are classic pressure tactics — slow down and verify independently.
  • Confirm the medium of instruction, hostel/food costs, and total multi-year fee in writing from the university itself, not only from an agent's brochure.

💬 Student Reviews

Real reviews from students.

Mayerlin Moreno Uceta

I still don't understand how the same mistake keeps being made every semester when re-enrollment dates open. The lines are endless, there are only three cashiers available for the number of students. No one trusts paying online. I don't even know the name of the technological university. ????? …

T-Cher Lio

The university looks old. There's no elevator. However, the location is very good. It's easily accessible by taking Line 1 of the Santo Domingo Metro and getting off at the Joaquín Balaguer station. There are many businesses nearby, including McDonald's, KFC, Krispy Kreme, and Wendy's.

Julii Batista

There is nothing for medical students, the books are old and torn, the cadavers for lab practices are like seed from so many years they have been there, it is impossible for the teachers to do their job better, there are no tools whatsoever …

Ana Fransheska Bouadjenek Ramos

If I could, I'd give it a 0. A university called technological and there's nothing about it. The teachers I've had are of poor quality, the service system is terrible, how is it possible that to register it takes from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., you …

Jessica Martinez

Nobody there knows anything. You call and the receptionist is more lost than someone registering for the first time, and don't even get me started on the registrars (although it's worth noting that only one guy from the computer lab was …

Marino Gonzalez

I earned two bachelor's degrees there... and every student is responsible for whether or not they become a good professional... but society is very discriminatory when it comes to recruiting any graduate with a degree from UTESA or from …

Eva Rojas

The staff is unprofessional and doesn't seem to handle information well. You ask someone something, and they send you to someone else, who also can't help you. In the end, the concierge knows more than the entire staff combined. …

Christian Holguin

Terrible service. They never answer the phone and the online payment system is always down. It's unbelievable that they still have these problems with such basic services. I hope they improve because this only affects the students.

Mar B

Communication is TERRIBLE! They don't answer WhatsApp. I've been sending messages for a week, and they don't even see them.
The main WhatsApp service is terrible; everyone is hateful.
They don't answer emails! THE WORST!

Miguel Alberto Brito Soliman

I'm a student at this university and I don't recommend it. It's quite expensive; services, fees, everything is charged and very expensive. Furthermore, the campus is deteriorating, there's a lack of organization, etc.

danny dipre

Don't enroll here. They treat students like beggars when they request any information or service from their staff. They have no respect for them, and the administrators do nothing to improve the situation.

Angela Gonzalez

It saddens me to see how this university has declined; the building is awful, and they don't modernize at all. Technological advances seem to be nonexistent in their teaching methods. It's lamentable.

Oscar Peña

It's not the best university in the country, but it's my school and it's the one that has trained me as a computer science professional, and that's more than enough to give it five stars.

sheila ramirez

Tell me, what good experience can one have at UTESA? Well, the girl who helped me today was cool! And she's fast. But other than that, that whole university is a STRESSFUL SOURCE.

Rlouis Tmateo

It's a mess; students aren't treated properly, there's a lack of information, and customer service is terrible. Oh, and another thing: it has absolutely NO technology!

Edward Enrique Rodriguez Almonte

The university that makes life impossible for students, with a very poor administrative organization and customer service that is among the worst in the country.

Carmen Guzmán Vlog

I'd give it five stars. But parking is incredibly difficult, and the staff's service when you're looking for information is very slow and not very helpful.

Juan José Díaz Nerio

An Excellent Option for Studying Computer Systems in Santo Domingo

As part of the academic team at UTESA Santo Domingo, I can say that the Computer …

Javiel Cedeño

It's the best university, mainly because of the Eulen Group cleaning staff who always maintain hygiene, plus the students learn more here than at Utesa.

Jose Ortega

The university atmosphere is very pleasant. Traffic is slow due to congestion from Gómez Avenue to one street before the university at off-peak hours.

Jose Roman

This university at this campus is quite problematic with parking and the physical facilities. I think they should improve the conditions for students.

Jose Luis Ramírez

Horrible. I went to pay for my re-registration and couldn't because the line wasn't moving. It was hard to leave because the curfew is at 5 p.m.

Heidi Elizabeth Arache López

The university is good, but the staff is awful. They provide terrible service to all the girls; they should be given a customer service course.

Ross Jmz

Now they're trying to answer the phones, calling for a week and nothing, wow my God, so many people who really want to work, for God's sake.

carl dream_chaser

As a semiprivate university it's affordable but need to be upgrade, classes look old
Im a former student in system engineering there

Virginia Emil

On October 20, 2025, I sent my sister to request a study plan. As I am a graduate residing abroad, I couldn't do it myself. …

José Diaz

Poor hygiene, unannounced increases in registration fees, poor communication, and 70% of the teachers don't know how to teach.

Neifry Yunior Robiu Moreta

It's an excellent university, although not perfect, but it's very good. I think they should offer more degree programs.

Montes de Oca Héctor

They just ruined my semester; I'm a Saturday student and they only scheduled classes for me on weekdays and at night.

Belony Bruno

An excellent experience. Qualified teachers. Students willing to fight so we all have a better future.

solo en RD official

Excellent University, very clean, good service, but with little parking, they should improve that.

Rosibelis Perez

They never answer the phone! They can't give accurate information and they never know anything!

Abrahan Guzmán

Try to improve the facilities, for what they charge they are far below an average university.

Darlin Miguel “darlin1990” Tapia Collado

It has changed a lot, it is becoming much more organized, and there are positive changes.

Miguel Antonio Muñoz De Los Santos

Utesa Is Everything, Except Technological ? The Internet In Libraries Is Of No Use, …
