What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0001620) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 118 rated student reviews on file here, averaging 4.6★ — 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 Honduras 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.

Ricardo Garcia

The best option for education. Among the programs offered here, this program is competitive with other Latin American countries. This is further enhanced by the free trade agreement with the Central American Union. Therefore, if you study here, you'll graduate well-equipped to further your specialization.

Rodolfo Mayorga

Good morning, it's a pleasant visit to UNAH. I recall it was a very enjoyable time. It's the highest educational institution in Honduras. However, there are always new opportunities for improvement, and UNAH is no exception. There must be constant innovation in all areas of universal knowledge.

Alejandro Josué Cálix Aguilar

The best in Honduras and the best in Central America, the university environment is fantastic. With a degree from UNAH, you can pursue a master's degree abroad or even find employment; it's simply the best. However, the government should pay more attention to ensure it continues to improve.

Daniel Jodko

The University has high potencial for further development. Highly motivated staff and open minded students. After the planned investments in facilities and equipment, the uni will be powerful unit able to make a great change in local society and the country of Honduras. Best wishes, DJ

Ana Lizeth Fuentes de Chinchilla

It has provided support to the community as a COVID-19 vaccination center, facilitating the mobilization of seniors, providing transportation, and providing support staff to coordinate and assist people arriving for vaccinations, both by vehicle and pedestrian access. Thank you, UNAH.

Gerson Gómez Rosa

The internal streets of CU, in front of the administrative areas, have been in poor condition for decades. New, modern buildings have been constructed, but the problem of the streets persists. Furthermore, parking is a significant issue.

Edward herrera

Please, Manuel Zelaya is not a graduate of the National Autonomous University of Honduras and only taught 11 classes during his tenure. I ask Google to remove him, as this individual is neither a graduate nor a notable person.

Alejandro Valladares

The most prestigious university in the country, while it does have its shortcomings, lacks air-conditioned buildings suitable for learning, as well as good educators who lack ethics when transferring their knowledge.

Oscar Cerrato

A very good place to study, the bad thing is when there are protests and tear gas, and when I went to the graduations the data didn't work, but their programs are good especially architecture and computer science.

Norman W. Rodríguez Salgado

Long live UNAH, the best place to study in Honduras, our first institution of higher education and the one that governs higher education in our beautiful country. Nothing better to feel pampered than UNAH.

milthon diaz

They are great and I would like to learn more about agronomy, unfortunately in San Pedro Sula there are not many centers where to learn about it and the places that are available fill up very quickly.

Ddi014

The atmosphere of the sports center is excellent and we owe it in part to the guards who make us feel safe. This is how all UNAH buildings should be safe and with enough guards for our safety.

Celica Quijano

It's wonderful to go to my alma mater when there aren't regular classes. There's parking available, the roads inside are uncongested, the outside areas are spotless, and there's full security.

Lía

I went to the National Autonomous University of Honduras's sports center for my daughter's graduation in Foreign Languages.
The best university in Honduras and Central America, affordable.

Daniel Fernández

It's the best Honduran university, but it's still a university in an underdeveloped country, which is an obstacle if one wants to fully improve academically. But we are proud to be Pumas!

Blanca Murillo

National Autonomous University of Honduras (public university of the state of Honduras).
Estimated enrollment at the university campus (Tegucigalpa, capital of Honduras) is over 15,000.

Marcos Enrique Zuniga Solorzano

It's the best university in Honduras, public and dynamic; with much room for improvement, but constantly growing and pushing forward in line with global trends in higher education.

jhojan oyuela

UNAH has terrible student services; the registrar's office never provides solutions, they don't like to explain or give guidance, and they get angry when you ask them questions.

Lesly Nehring

UNAH is an institution specializing in higher education. It is the first university center in Honduras, responsible for governing all the country's universities. Go ahead! UNAH!

Angélica Manzanarez

It's a good place to learn and meet new people; there's still a lot of room for improvement in terms of education, but it's definitely a peaceful place because of nature.

Nori R

The people who helped me were very willing to help and I had answers to almost all of my questions. Thank you very much Josefa Cabrera, a person who is easy to talk to.

sanz

The best university in Honduras, Puma territory. The only downside is that at any moment, when you least expect it, there's a riot and they fill you with tear gas.

RD MR

The guards are very good on your part, he is devastated but you ask him which part you are leaving and they know, the only bad thing is that he looks too much? …

Adalberto

I don't study here; I've only come in to process my degree paperwork. The streets are terrible; they should be repaired with the millions they have every year.

Carla Martinez

The 1847 building is a work of art; the afternoon is still and quiet in the Plaza of the Four Cultures.
I love university food and the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Ruben Dubon Acosta

Of my few 5-star ratings, obviously there is always work or improvements in infrastructure, but in my opinion it is the best university in Honduras.

Kimberly Martinez

I like UNAH, but it's been neglected. Many places are already damaged. Those of us who go are adults, but we see broken things, scratched desks...

Kelly Medina

The best university, with a large infrastructure, multiple degree options, and a transparent rector's office dedicated to student satisfaction.

Fiona

Would be nice to see the natural arts educations get as much visible support as the sports stadium. Get with the trends of the future. …

Allisone Padilla

Well-maintained green areas; buildings aren't too difficult to find. Avoid asking students for directions; ask the security guards for help.

Gabriel Meza

Best University, although some classrooms and the state of the streets leave much to be said, not to mention the treatment of some students

Mario R. Palma

It is the largest and most important educational center in Honduras, it is a house of light, of which all Hondurans have to feel proud.

Raúl Ramos

The best university in Honduras, despite all the factors that affect it, the highest institution of learning will always be the best.

Maria Elena Padilla

Very nice, I didn't know the university and today was my opportunity to get to know it because it was there that I got vaccinated.

S “cmr115159” Mejia

A university should have teachers who feel joy in transmitting knowledge and not bitter teachers who seek to embitter students.

Jhosue Soxa Crhist

Excellent university! I invite you to enroll at UNAH. Find more information about UNAH, including a PAA exam registration map!

Olinda Pinel

Desolate, it needs a bit of cleaning, but I think that's normal since classes have been suspended for more than 14 months.

Marlon Flores

Everything was fine, except they should have more affordable cars since there weren't many. Everything else was perfect.

Eduardo Salandía

UNAH is excellent, the best university in Honduras. I have fond memories of my student days and my wife's graduations.
