What's new
New countries, new matchers and data refreshes, newest first. Each country's pages say which year its figures cover; the sources page lists them all.
Vietnam: accredited universities and programmes
The universities, academies and colleges in the Ministry of Education and Training's list of institutions and programmes accredited against Vietnamese or foreign quality standards, updated to 31 October 2026: 210 universities and 12 teacher-training colleges under the national standards, 17 universities under foreign standards, and 3,300 programmes, each with its accreditation body, result and certificate dates. Universities not yet accredited aren't in the list.
Iraq: central-admission minimums, with a matcher
The minimum total and average admitted to each of 1,263 programmes at Iraq's 36 federal public universities in central admission for 2026/27, by stream and gender, with 2025/26 alongside where the programme is listed the same way — from the higher-education ministry's published minimums. A matcher compares your average with each programme's minimum, in bands set from how much minimums actually moved between the two years. Private universities and the Kurdistan Region's universities aren't in the ministry's file.
Zambia: registered institutions and accredited programmes
The 173 higher-education institutions in the Higher Education Authority's Digital Registry, as its website publishes it — 45 public and 128 private universities, university colleges, nursing and health-sciences colleges and specialised training institutions — with their 2,127 accredited programmes, from certificates to doctorates. HEA's website gives other totals elsewhere, which the pages note. The registry has no fees, enrolment or entry requirements.
Uganda: every licensed university and college, with its programmes
All 170 institutions on the National Council for Higher Education's list of licensed institutions — 64 universities, 21 other degree-awarding institutions, 68 other tertiary institutions and 17 campuses — each with its licence status and district, and the programmes NCHE's register lists for it, with their accreditation and expiry dates. NCHE's lists have no fees, enrolment or entry scores.
Nepal: every university and campus, with its students
All 1,513 higher-education campuses in Nepal from the University Grants Commission's report for 2024/25 (2081/082 B.S.): 25 universities and medical academies and the 58 colleges affiliated with foreign universities, 721,246 students in all. Each university's page lists its campuses by province with their programmes and students, and gives students by level and faculty, graduates and teachers. The report has no fees, entry scores or outcomes.
Tunisia: every public faculty, school and institute
All 206 public higher-education institutions in Tunisia's ministry register, under its 12 universities, the Virtual University of Tunis and the ISET network, from the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research's open data: students by field of study for 2020/21 to 2022/23, graduates of 2021–22 by diploma and speciality, and teaching staff. The open data has no fees, entry scores or private institutions.
Caribbean: Cuba's higher-education institutions
The official lists at the bottom of the Caribbean page now include the 38 Cuban institutions the Ministry of Higher Education names, each with the ministry it belongs to, its province and its accreditation category as listed.
Bulgaria: every university and college in the official register
All 51 higher-education institutions in Bulgaria's Register of Higher Education Institutions, kept by NACID for the Ministry of Education and Science — 38 state, 13 private — with each one's accreditation decisions (the national agency's grade and term), the professional fields it is accredited in, and its 4,524 bachelor's and master's programmes with form, length and language of instruction; 367 are taught in English. The register holds no enrolment, fees or entry scores.
Lithuania: universities and colleges, programme by programme
The 30 universities and colleges with students in Lithuania's Student Register in 2025, from the State Data Agency's open data (CC BY 4.0): 1,278 study programmes with how many studied in and graduated from each, how many were invited and signed a study contract through LAMA BPO's general admission in 2024 and 2025, and each programme's latest accreditation decision as the programme register lists it. No fees, entry scores or graduate outcomes are in the open data.
US college pages: admission requirements, applicant counts, and grants and loans for first-year students
Each US college page now shows what the college tells the Department of Education it considers in admission decisions — high school GPA, class rank, school record, college-prep courses, recommendations, essays, legacy status and more, each as required, considered if submitted, or not considered — and how many first-time students applied, were admitted and enrolled, from IPEDS Admissions for fall 2023. Open-admission colleges are marked as such. The cost section now also shows what share of full-time, first-time students received any grant, a Pell Grant, the college's own grants and scholarships, and federal student loans, with the average amount among those who received each, from IPEDS Student Financial Aid for 2022–23. The same figures are in the compare tables.
A Student Aid Index estimator for the 2027–28 FAFSA
Estimate the Student Aid Index the 2027–28 FAFSA will give you — the form for the 2027–28 school year, which asks about 2025 income — with the Department of Education's own published formula for dependent and independent students: the same worksheets, tables and rounding, every line shown. It also runs the maximum- and minimum-Pell income tests against the 2025 poverty guidelines, applies the FAFSA's rule for who skips the asset questions, and estimates the full-time Pell Grant — using $7,395, the 2026–27 maximum, because the 2027–28 amount hasn't been announced. The Department's worked example comes out at the same SAI, 12,198. Everything you type stays in your browser.
Aid-offer comparer: the repayment plan for 2026–27 loans, loan fees and the Pell maximum
Federal loans first paid out from July 1, 2026 can no longer be repaid on the 10-year Standard Repayment Plan; they go on the Tiered Standard Plan, whose period depends on how much the borrower owes (10 years under $25,000, 15 under $50,000, 20 under $100,000, 25 above). The comparer now estimates the student's and the parent's monthly payments separately on that plan, shows the loan fees taken out before the money is paid (1.057% on Direct Loans, 4.228% on Parent PLUS) and counts them in what's left to pay, and notes figures above the 2026–27 Pell maximum ($7,395) or the federal loan limits — including the new $20,000-a-year and $65,000-in-all limits on Parent PLUS loans. All from Federal Student Aid, read October 27, 2026.
Moldova: the official institutions and the programmes ANACEC lists as accredited
The 16 higher-education institutions on Moldova's Ministry of Education and Research list — 12 public, 4 private — with the 432 study programmes that ANACEC, the national quality-assurance agency, marks active for them in its register of accredited programmes: level, form of study, the accreditation term as listed and the Ministry act it prints. ANACEC also lists 29 active programmes under six names that aren't on the ministry's list; they are shown apart, under ANACEC's name. Expired rows (419) are counted, not listed. No fees, enrolment, admission scores or outcomes are published per institution.
Europe's small states: Luxembourg, Andorra, San Marino and the Holy See's universities in Rome
A new page with the official lists for Europe's smallest states. Luxembourg: the 18 institutions on the higher-education ministry's list of 17 July 2026 — the Université du Luxembourg, LUNEX, the Luxembourg School of Business and 15 lycées that run BTS programmes — with each accredited programme and its validity dates as listed (expired programmes are counted, not shown). Andorra: the eight universities its quality agency lists at the end of 2025, each with the year and gazette notice of its authorisation. San Marino: its university and the Istituto Musicale Sammarinese. The Holy See: the nine pontifical universities and athenaea its Dicastery for Culture and Education lists in Rome, Italy. Monaco's government publishes its own list, which its terms don't allow us to restate, so the page links to it. Names, types, dates and websites; no fees or enrolment.
India: JoSAA closing ranks and a JEE rank matcher
The opening and closing rank of every programme, quota, seat type and gender pool in the final round of JoSAA's seat allocation — 12,936 rows at 138 institutes in 2026 (24 IITs and IISc, 32 NITs and IIEST, 26 IIITs, 56 other government-funded institutes), with every earlier final round back to 2016 — on a page per institute, and a matcher that compares your JEE (Advanced) or JEE (Main) rank, category, PwD status, gender pool and the state where you passed Class XII with each row's 2026 closing rank. Groups are set by how far closing ranks moved between 2025 and 2026 (third quartile 16.5% on the JEE Advanced scale, 22.6% on the JEE Main scale); nothing is called safe. IIT B.Arch. rows (Architecture Aptitude Test) are listed apart. JoSAA publishes no fees.

Community-maintained lists of universities from Wikidata, by province or region, for fourteen countries whose official lists can't be read or republished. Each page says clearly that it is not an official list, names the regulator to check with, and — where a UN or official source records it — carries one sentence on the situation that affects a prospective student. Entries Wikidata marks as closed are left out; in Nicaragua, universities whose legal status the official gazette or UN documents record as cancelled are left out too. The Iran and North Korea pages list public information only and carry no application links.

Wikidata lists for the countries with no readable official list
Chad, the Comoros, Djibouti, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Guinea-Bissau, the Republic of the Congo, São Tomé and Príncipe, Seychelles, Tuvalu, Nauru and Bahrain had no ministry or regulator website we could read. Each now has a section on its regional page built from Wikidata, a database anyone can edit — in a separate block marked "From Wikidata — not an official list", below the official registers and never mixed into them. Names, Wikidata's own class, a town and a website that answered when checked; no figures. Dissolved items, faculties, campuses, duplicates and items located elsewhere are left out. Wikidata records no degree-awarding institution located in Tuvalu or Nauru, and their sections say so.
Official lists for smaller countries: the Pacific Islands, more of Asia and Africa, and the Caribbean
Three new pages, and a new section on the Caribbean page, for countries too small for a section of their own: every institution on each country's official register or list, with the regulator to check recognition with — names, types, towns and websites, with no figures except Tonga's accredited-programme counts, which its regulator publishes under an open licence.
