Abstract	While Peru has experienced economic growth in recent years, there is still significant inequality in the country based on various indicators. Given higher education's association with greater incomes and broader social inequality, equitable access to higher education is vital. One important factor to accessing university is geographic mobility, especially given Peru's unique power center of Lima and many peripheral regions. Therefore, using powerful census data of university students, the purpose of this study is to explore geographic mobility among university students in Peru, how this mobility differs by state and by different demographic indicators of inequality, and what the implications of these factors are for social inequality in Peru.
