Besides indicators of load and occupancy for qualitative analysis of the effectiveness of using real estate of higher education institution authors suggest taking into account the general factors related to income and expenses of the university. The article presents the highest possible utilization factor of classroom fund of higher education. The results of performed analysis provide a set of indicators, describing intensiveness of classroom funds use by any university and provide justification for continuing research into modern information technologies of university real estate assets The article suggests the list of basic information for calculating integral indicator of university real estate assets utilization quality and demonstrates the need for creating single system of information collection and analysis. The article is of interest for departments of strategic planning and campus development of any university.
