"Recognized as the oldest university in the world by the Guinness Book of Records, [10] UNESCO [11] and several historians [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19], this recognition has no consensus; historians such as al-Jaznai [20] (fourteenth century) and Lévi-Provençal [21] (twentieth century) consider that it did not really become a university until the thirteenth century, when education became generalized and less centered on Islamic religon and when al-Quaraouiyine formed many philosophers and thinkers, many non-Muslims. Some historians, taking into account the concept of the university as purely Euro-Christian [22] [23] [24] and refusing to consider any type of institution outside the Christian space as such, consider that al-Quaraouiyine can not considered as a university until the twentieth century."

Here's a fun fact: Helsinki University was founded in 1640 in Turku (Åbo) as Royal Academy of Turku in 1640. Turku was the largest city in Finland back then.
Helsinki didn't even exist back then. When Turku burned down in 1827 they moved the university to Helsinki.

The predecessor was a cathedral school founded in 1276

>In theory, the Katedralskolan is the oldest institution of learning of Finland as it has an organizational continuity from the medieval Cathedral school, founded in 1276.

University of San Marcos, is the oldest official University in the Americas, then it was known as "Real Universidad de Lima" (Royal University of Lima)
Our current Legislative Palace is their previous building for all our colonial period, pic, our First Constituent Congress presided by Toribio Rodriguez de Mendoza in the chapel of the University on September 20, 1822.

In colonial times, their School of Philology was very influenced by Andean philosophy.
In the late 1577s, Viceroy Toledo established a Quechua chair with wide-ranging powers at the University of San Marcos. He made the Quechua course obligatory for the "bachiller" and "licenciado" degrees, to this day they still the Quechua chair though is no longer obligatory.
Since 1691 (and ratified in 1725), a quarter of the scholarships in the Viceroyalty were given to kurakas' (indigenous nobility) children, a privilege given exclusively to "major and noble Indians" since they weren't outlawed by the impediment of "blood cleansing" unlike common Indians who were banned.

Just wish they had chosen another place of its new campus, as they and other nearby constructions such as the Lima's Zoo and nearby residential buildings destroyed much of what once was the pre-Columbian city of Maranga, destroying much of its monumental architecture.
