Abstract
University rankings have become instruments providing information guiding various stakeholders in their decision-making processes, based on indicators that may approximate quality assurance mechanisms. Latin American universities were analyzed in light of major international rankings to study convergences in terms of institutional quality, based on their respective performances. This involved a bibliographic and documentary investigation, including the analysis of performance indicators from the Times Higher Education, QS World University Rankings, and Academic Ranking of World Universities, along with data collected from governmental bodies. It was found that few Latin American universities stand out internationally; however, some convergences were observed in the cases of Argentine, Brazilian, Chilean, Colombian, and Mexican institutions.
