In addition, the University has just obtained new premises in the city of Lima, thanks to a 20-year lease with the Marist Brothers. The premises, with an area of twenty-three thousand square meters, served formerly as headquarters of the Champagnat school.

This new campus will provide more comfort to those working at the University, and it will also provide better services for the students. Furthermore, it will accommodate the activities formerly held at two separate locations in San Isidro (Los Eucaliptos and Arequipa Avenue).
