Overview
- The Ministry of Capital Humano, through the Subsecretaría de Políticas Universitarias, issued a formal notice requiring the immediate suspension of all UNAFA advertising and a written descargo within five business days.
- The government states UNAFA is not legally authorized to operate as a university in Argentina under norms that reserve the term to state‑approved institutions and prohibit unlicensed degree offers.
- Authorities documented AFA publicizing degree and postgraduate programs across media and social platforms and on universidadafa.com, including a master’s in Direction of Sports Entities with 2026 enrollment.
- Officials cited Resoluciones 206/1997 and 4600‑E/2017 and articles 39 and 68 of the Higher Education Law as the basis for restricting unauthorized university promotion and credentialing.
- The notice warns of possible immediate closure of activities and inhabilitation of responsible parties for noncompliance, and AFA had not issued a public response at the time of reporting.
