This was reported by Mariella del Barco Herrera, director of Degrees and Titles of the National Superintendence of Higher University Education (Sunedu), who warned that more than 50% of students could be left without that important document this year, Andina announced.

“It is necessary that the universities do not stop requesting the card, because those who will be directly affected are the students,” said the official in dialogue with the aforementioned agency. He specified that the process of issuing the new university card began on February 1 and the higher study centers were duly informed that the process was open.
