Discovery sources

Limitations: Records are per university seat, built from the ANEAES May 2025 report only; programs habilitated after May 2025 are not included, degree titles, durations, faculty names (for non-accredited programs), ownership and websites were not verified. The report's PDF tables interleave cells, so a few seat assignments (UPE Asunción/Presidente Franco/Ciudad del Este, Sudamericana Salto del Guairá, UPAP seats, Universidad Católica Alto Paraná) rest on reconciling Table 1 with Table 4 and the 43-program total. 'Loma Pyta' is kept as written in the report.
