On July 12, 1696 Friar Felipe Galindo Chávez y Pineda with King Charles II, the Real Seminario Conciliar de San José sought to raise to the rank of a university. Only in 1750 was carried out with Matías Angel de la Mota Padilla the next effort in this direction, which declared the establishment of a university as a top priority of the city government. But not until 1767, when the Jesuits were banned in Latin America and so that education can largely collapsed, concrete plans were necessary.
