El objetivo de este estudio fue comparar las percepciones de los estudiantes sobre el entorno educativo en cuatro instituciones de educación superior tecnológica e identificar los factores en los que se concentraban las diferencias. Se empleó un diseño cuantitativo, no experimental y transversal con una muestra de 355 estudiantes. Los factores F1–F5 se analizaron mediante un análisis multivariante de covarianza (MANCOVA). La principal contribución de este estudio es la identificación del factor específico que concentra la brecha institucional, proporcionando así evidencia para priorizar estrategias de mejora. Se hallaron diferencias significativas en el perfil general de los factores F1–F5 (Traza de Pillai, p = 0,020). Los análisis posteriores indicaron que dichas diferencias se concentraban en el factor F4 (p = 0,024; η² parcial = 0,026), mientras que la edad mostró una asociación significativa con F1 (p = 0,002) y F4 (p = 0,001). Estos resultados respaldan la priorización de acciones institucionales centradas en la flexibilidad, la retención estudiantil y el apoyo institucional a la gestión educativa.
