Pretoria is one of South Africa's leading academic cities and is home to both the largest residential university in South Africa, largest distance education university in South Africa and a research intensive university.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2021-11-13 |title=University of Pretoria |url=https://www.timeshighereducation.com/world-university-rankings/university-pretoria |access-date=2022-02-22 |website=Times Higher Education |language=en |archive-date=22 February 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220222172533/https://www.timeshighereducation.com/world-university-rankings/university-pretoria |url-status=live}}</ref> The three Universities in the city in order of the year founded are as follows:

====University of South Africa====
[[File:UNISA Main Campus.jpg|thumb|The Muckleneuk Campus of [[UNISA]]]]
The [[University of South Africa]] (commonly referred to as Unisa), founded in 1873 as the [[University of the Cape of Good Hope]], is the largest university on the African continent and attracts a third of all higher education students in South Africa. It spent most of its early history as an examining agency for Oxford and Cambridge universities and as an incubator from which most other universities in South Africa are descended. In 1946 it was given a new role as a distance education university and in 2012 it had a student headcount of over 300,000 students, including African and international students in 130 countries worldwide, making it one of the world's mega universities. Unisa is a dedicated open distance education institution and offers both vocational and academic programmes.
