About the university
The Central American University "José Simeón Cañas", known as UCA, was founded in September 1965, in the context of the optimism of the decade of development. A group of Catholic citizens approached the Government and the Society of Jesus to promote the establishment of a second university. They wanted to create an alternative to the University of El Salvador to professionally train graduates of Catholic schools. The university conceived by this group of people was private, with capital and actions, and oriented to satisfy the demands of a professional education of an elite. They considered that a Catholic university conceived in these terms would contribute to a great extent to the cultural advance of the Salvadoran people. To qualify elitism, they proposed to offer some scholarships.
