Education, like healthcare, is one of the sources of human capital development. Creating and maintaining human capital requires significant effort. The private higher education sector is capable of solving the problem of accumulating human capital, thereby reducing the burden of the state. The article examines the institutional profile of private higher education. The 90s of the 20th centuries were characterized by rapid growth in the number of private universities in Russia. Since the beginning of the 2000s of the 21st century, the number of private universities and the number of their students began to gradually decline, and numerous negative stereotypes were formed regarding non-state higher education. In this work, the authors tried to analyze the current state of the private higher education sector in Russia, determine its advantages and disadvantages, and identify further prospects for development. The goals set by the authors during the study are to analyze the current state of the private sector of higher professional education and search for directions for the development of non-state universities. The work is based on the study of scientific publications and reviews of the private sector of higher professional education, as well as on the basis of an analysis of statistical data from the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation and reports from rating agencies. The authors analyzed the current situation of private higher education in Russia and assessed its share in the educational services market. During the study, existing private universities were divided into three categories: “fundamental”, “commercially successful”, “shadow”. For each group under consideration, distinctive characteristics and characteristics were identified. As the results of the study, the authors proposed directions for the development of the non-state sector of higher education in Russia, ultimately aimed at the growth of human capital in the country.
