First of all we must focus on the fact that the Universidad Nacional de Asunción is public, government funded institution. Due to this being the only university that is public people often times do not understand how it works.
One of the mayor perks that you receive as a student of this university is that since it’s government funded you have to participate in volunteering programs to give back to the community which is essentially paying for your studies.
Why, you might wonder, is this considered a perk?
The simple answer is experience.
During your time as a student you will have opportunities to meet and network with people relevant to your area of study that are more than ready to help you better understand how to work in your area of study.
This can be of critical importance for some as it opens new doors for people who come from far away locations.
