This article is the product of a bibliographic review, and the main objective was to show the quality of Nicaraguan universities according to their positioning in the main university rankings that are responsible for evaluating the quality of the universities, in order to know about the reality of Nicaragua's higher education institutions. We used the analysis method, with a qualitative approach, non-experimental design, at cross-sectional documentary- bibliographic level. After the documentary review, we noted that according to the rankings given by the World Universities Rankings (QS) Wobometrics and Scomago Institutions Rankings (SIR), not all Nicaraguan higher educations are evaluated by these measurement systems, as well as, the institutions evaluated are positioned in the latter positions. This chapter will be addressed in general way. It conclude that there is a weakness in the quality of Nicaraguan higher education institutions, due to its positioning in the rankings that evaluate the quality of these, we concluded that research is a determining factor in the evaluation of quality of Nicaraguan education system.
