Overview
- The announcement was made by SEP Secretary Mario Delgado on Monday, June 15, and confirms UnADM will open registration for its 2026 intake on July 20.
- The 20,000 new places are part of a federal plan to add 330,000 university slots by 2030 to expand access to higher education.
- UnADM is a decentralized body of the SEP with official registration before the Dirección General de Profesiones so it does not require private RVOE for its degrees.
- The university already serves more than 129,000 students across 27 cohorts and offers programs in three divisions: social and administrative sciences, STEM and engineering, and health and environmental sciences.
- Officials unveiled new alumni services at the 2026 graduates’ meeting and cautioned that internet access, digital skills and student retention remain central challenges for scaling online higher education.
