About Universidad de Buenos Aires
The University of Buenos Aires was created by provincial decree on 9 August 1821 and opened on 12 August, with the priest Antonio Sáenz as its first rector. It passed to the national government in 1881, and the 1918 University Reform brought shared governance with students and graduates. It has been tuition-free since 1949, and its faculties are spread across the city rather than on one campus.
