The effects on different human groups caused by social isolation due to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic are currently being known. In this context, one of the least favored sectors and that even until the end of 2021 had not resumed activities to a great extent of Latin America was the education sector and, in the face of a new variant of the virus, it is possible that these activities will continue virtually in 2022. In this regard, the present study aims to show the appreciation of the students, mainly university students, in order to know the perception and assessment regarding the class modality types in the context of COVID-19. For this, a quantitative and descriptive study was designed based on the interpretation of information obtained from surveys carried out on 198 students from the National University of San Cristóbal de Huamanga in Peru. The results regarding the qualification of learning in the virtual modality of the theoretical classes show that 58.1% of students mention that it was regular and 31.3% that it was good, regarding learning in the virtual modality of the experimental classes, 43.4% mention that it was regular and 38.9% deficient. Their preferences in most cases is to have theoretical classes virtually and/or blended; and experimental laboratory classes in face to face and/or blended; Likewise, under the current context of COVID-19, 85.4% of students state that they prefer their health over their professional training.
