List of Universitario de Deportes seasons

This is a list of seasons played by Club Universitario de Deportes in Peruvian and South American football, from 1928 (the year of the club's first participated in the Peruvian Primera División) to the most recent completed season. Club Universitario de Deportes was founded in August, 1924, by students and professors of the National University of San Marcos. Between 1924 and 1927, Universitario played a small number of friendly games. In 1928, the Peruvian Football Federation allowed the club, then known as Federación Universitaria, to enter the Peruvian Primera División, the country's premier division. The club surprised opposing and supporting fans that year because they were the runners-up of the season. During that season, on 23 September 1928, Universitario played the first clásico with Alianza Lima, the defending champion of the season, and won 1–0. However, the team lost to Alianza in an end-of-season play-off for the league title.

The Universitario squad that won their first Primera División title in 1929: Alva; C. Galindo, Rotta, Denegri, P. Galindo, Astengo, M. Pacheco, P. Pacheco, Góngora, Cillóniz and Souza Ferreira.

The club has won the Peruvian Primera División twenty-six times, a national cup twice, has finished as Copa Libertadores runner-up once, and has never been relegated from Peru's top division.

This list details the club's achievements in all major competitions, and the top scorers for each season (where the information is available). Top scorers in bold were also the top scorers in the Peruvian Primera División that season.
