Inclusive education is a model that has reached the undergraduate level due to the interest of students with disabilities to aspire to a better future. It is important to learn the students’ perception of inclusion since they play a fundamental role in the success of said studies. The objective of this research was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the questionnaire of perception of inclusive education at a higher level. 227 questionnaires were applied to students of a private university in the state of Morelos, Mexico. A Cronbach’s alpha of .898 was obtained and 3 factors were identified in the factorial analysis that explain 34% of the variance. In addition to this, significant differences were found in sex, age and career variables in relation to the perception of inclusion in their university. In conclusion, the questionnaire revealed to be valid and reliable in the population, so it becomes a useful alternative if it is necessary to evaluate the inclusion programs from the students’ perspective.
