The Spanish government wants to curb the proliferation of private universities that has occurred in Spain in recent years, which is on the verge of causing there to be more than 46 public ones (50). This proliferation would not be a problem if there were not the suspicion that behind many of them there is not enough academic solidity or sufficient structure, but that the corresponding regional authorities still give them the green light because it is still an entry of economic activity and prestige for the territory in question. In fact, a third of the new universities approved have not had a positive report from the Ministry of Universities, but this procedure is not binding. The regional government has the final say.
