This article briefly revises the international rankings and identifies the three with the greatest relevance and influence on higher education institutions. It analyzes their distinctive characteristics and how the results impose a university model: the elitist research university. The “world class” university represents the most desirable model and places Latin American universities in a situation of marginalization

Keywords : International rankings; Higher education institutions; World class universities; Qualityassurance; Evaluation.
