UTESA

Better known as the Santiago Institute of Technology, this is a school where students do never-ending experiments and professors work you to the bone with heavy course loads. It is where spoiled rich kids study, though there are also students on scholarship. Lately, UTESA has been getting tougher, following in the footsteps of INTEC. Its main rivals are PUCMM and INTEC (UTESA, INTEC, and PUCMM are all prominent private universities in the Dominican Republic).

The classes and assignments at UTESA never end.
