Description of Business | Description of Business Laureate Education, Inc. and subsidiaries (hereinafter Laureate, we, us, our, or the Company) provide higher education programs and services to students through an international network of licensed universities and higher education institutions (institutions). Laureate's programs are provided through institutions that are campus-based and internet-based, or through electronically distributed educational programs (online). On October 1, 2015, we redomiciled in Delaware as a public benefit corporation as a demonstration of our long-term commitment to our mission to benefit our students and society. The Company completed its initial public offering (IPO) on February 6, 2017 and its shares are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol ‘‘LAUR.’’ Discontinued Operations On August 9, 2018 , the Company announced the divestiture of additional subsidiaries located in Europe, Asia and Central America, which are included in the Rest of World (formerly called EMEAA), Andean (formerly called Andean & Iberian), and Central America & U.S. Campuses segments. Previously, the Company had announced the divestiture of certain subsidiaries in the Rest of World and Central America & U.S. Campuses segments. After completing all of these announced divestitures, the Company’s remaining principal markets will be Brazil, Chile, Mexico and Peru, along with the Online & Partnerships segment and the institutions in Australia and New Zealand. This represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. Accordingly, all of the divestitures that are part of this strategic shift, including the divestitures announced on August 9, 2018 and those announced previously, are now accounted for as discontinued operations for all periods presented in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205-20, ‘‘Discontinued Operations’’ (ASC 205). See Note 4 , Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale , for more information. Unless indicated otherwise, the information in the footnotes to the Consolidated Financial Statements relates to continuing operations. The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In our opinion, these financial statements include all adjustments considered necessary to present a fair statement of our consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Operating results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with Laureate's audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 (the 2018 Form 10-K) . |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies | Significant Accounting Policies The Variable Interest Entity (VIE) Arrangements Laureate consolidates in its financial statements certain internationally based educational organizations that do not have shares or other equity ownership interests. Although these educational organizations may be considered not-for-profit entities in their home countries and they are operated in compliance with their respective not-for-profit legal regimes, we believe they do not meet the definition of a not-for-profit entity under GAAP, and therefore we treat them as ‘‘for-profit’’ entities for accounting purposes. These entities generally cannot declare dividends or distribute their net assets to the entities that control them. Under ASC 810-10, ‘‘Consolidation,’’ we have determined that these institutions are VIEs and that Laureate is the primary beneficiary of these VIEs because we have, as further described herein: (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly affect their educational and economic performance and (2) the right to receive economic benefits from contractual and other arrangements with the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. We account for the acquisition of the right to control a VIE in accordance with ASC 805, ‘‘Business Combinations.’’ The VIEs in Brazil and Mexico comprise several not-for-profit foundations that have insignificant revenues and operating expenses. Selected Consolidated Statements of Operations information for VIEs that are included in continuing operations was as follows, net of the charges related to the above-described contractual arrangements: For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Selected Statements of Operations information: Revenues, by segment: Brazil $ — $ — $ — $ — Mexico — 86 — 86 Andean 148,472 150,504 204,922 205,540 Revenues 148,472 150,590 204,922 205,626 Depreciation and amortization 6,890 6,490 12,986 13,235 Operating income (loss), by segment: Brazil (17 ) (22 ) (34 ) (40 ) Mexico (99 ) (71 ) (196 ) (228 ) Andean 44,519 34,011 17,299 (5,240 ) Operating income (loss) 44,403 33,918 17,069 (5,508 ) Net income 41,785 39,042 17,585 4,047 Net income attributable to Laureate Education, Inc. 41,785 39,042 17,585 4,047 The following table reconciles the Net income attributable to Laureate Education, Inc. as presented in the table above, to the amounts in our Consolidated Statements of Operations: For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Net income (loss) attributable to Laureate Education, Inc.: Variable interest entities $ 41,785 $ 39,042 $ 17,585 $ 4,047 Other operations 699,745 238,626 654,533 220,359 Corporate and eliminations 40,062 (53,256 ) 300,717 168,885 Net income attributable to Laureate Education, Inc. $ 781,592 $ 224,412 $ 972,835 $ 393,291 The following table presents selected assets and liabilities of the consolidated VIEs.

Selected Consolidated Balance Sheet amounts for these VIEs were as follows: June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 VIE Consolidated VIE Consolidated Balance Sheets data: Cash and cash equivalents $ 69,692 $ 236,412 $ 158,387 $ 388,490 Current assets held for sale 102,792 187,166 183,880 306,372 Other current assets 251,556 697,281 141,346 522,271 Total current assets 424,040 1,120,859 483,613 1,217,133 Goodwill 172,557 1,737,455 168,473 1,707,089 Tradenames 68,319 1,134,648 66,929 1,126,244 Other intangible assets, net — 2,076 — 25,429 Operating lease right-of-use assets, net 76,620 937,884 — — Long-term assets held for sale 99,967 493,859 165,087 1,031,459 Other long-term assets 292,116 1,665,007 312,711 1,662,282 Total assets 1,133,619 7,091,788 1,196,813 6,769,636 Current liabilities held for sale 34,066 139,162 101,320 308,391 Other current liabilities 156,659 1,066,324 106,657 881,696 Long-term operating leases, less current portion 65,836 862,369 — — Long-term liabilities held for sale 28,939 163,859 42,265 354,293 Long-term debt and other long-term liabilities 33,177 1,740,498 24,502 3,159,914 Total liabilities 318,677 3,972,212 274,744 4,704,294 Total stockholders' equity 814,942 3,107,083 922,069 2,050,946 Total stockholders' equity attributable to Laureate Education, Inc. 814,942 3,118,214 921,747 2,061,079 On January 24, 2018, a new Higher Education Law (the New Law) was passed by the Chilean Congress. Among other things, the New Law prohibits conflicts of interests and related party transactions involving universities and their controlling parties, with certain exceptions. These exceptions include the provision of services that are educational in nature or essential for the university’s purposes. The New Law established a Superintendency of Higher Education, with authority to regulate institutions of higher education and promulgate regulations and procedures implementing the New Law. As of May 29, 2019, the New Law’s provisions regarding related party transactions came into force; however, the Superintendent has not issued any further interpretive guidance or regulations. Immediately prior to these provisions coming into force, each of the Chilean non-profit universities and the relevant Laureate services provider reached an agreement to terminate the prior network services agreement in favor of an open bidding process, wherein unrelated third parties and Laureate-related providers were invited to compete in the provision of the range of services that are essential to the fulfillment of each of their academic missions. Once the bidding and contractual processes are completed, which is expected by the end of the third quarter, the Company and the Chilean non-profit universities will remain subject to the oversight of the Superintendent and may need to evaluate additional modifications to their contractual relationships. We do not believe that the New Law will change our relationship with our two tech/voc institutions in Chile that are for-profit entities. Additionally, we will continue to evaluate our accounting treatment of the Chilean non-profit universities to determine whether we can continue to consolidate them. Our continuing evaluation of the impact of the New Law may result in changes to our expectations due to changes in our interpretations of the law, assumptions used, and additional guidance that may be issued. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02 (ASU 2016-02), Leases (Topic 842) On February 25, 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize on their balance sheet a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a lease liability for virtually all of their leases (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease). The liability is equal to the present value of the lease payments. The asset is based on the liability, subject to adjustment, such as for initial direct costs and uneven rent payments. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases result in straight-line expense (similar to operating leases prior to adoption of ASU 2016-02) while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern (similar to capital leases prior to adoption of ASU 2016-02). Laureate adopted ASU 2016-02 as of January 1, 2019 under a modified retrospective method. The standard provided companies with an additional, optional transition method that allowed entities to prospectively apply the requirements by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. We elected this optional transition method. In accordance with Topic 842 we also elected the package of practical expedients, which permits us to not reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (3) any initial direct costs for any existing leases as of the effective date. We did not elect the hindsight practical expedient, which permits entities to use hindsight in determining the lease term and assessing impairment. We elected the practical expedient to combine our lease and related nonlease components for our building leases. Adopting ASU 2016-02 had a material impact on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as we recorded significant asset and liability balances in connection with our leased properties. The most significant impacts to our Consolidated Financial Statements of adopting this standard are as follows: • The recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases, which totaled $937,884 and $958,066 , respectively, as of June 30, 2019 ; • An increase in 2019 rent expense of approximately $13,000 for continuing operations primarily related to build-to-suit arrangements where Laureate was deemed to be the owner of the construction. Upon adoption of this standard, these arrangements were classified on the balance sheet as operating leases and the related ROU asset is being amortized to rent expense rather than depreciation expense; and • A cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption of $28,944 , which is primarily attributable to the reclassification into retained earnings of deferred gain liabilities related to sale-leaseback transactions that were classified as operating leases upon adoption. ASU No. 2017-12 (ASU 2017-12), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities On August 28, 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, which contains significant amendments to the hedge accounting model. The new guidance is intended to simplify the application of hedge accounting and should allow for more hedging strategies to qualify for hedge accounting. ASU 2017-12 also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how companies assess effectiveness. Public business entities like Laureate will have until the end of the first quarter in which a hedge is designated to perform an initial assessment of a hedge’s effectiveness. After initial qualification, the new guidance permits a qualitative effectiveness assessment for certain hedges instead of a quantitative test, such as a regression analysis, if the company can reasonably support an expectation of high effectiveness throughout the term of the hedge. An initial quantitative test to establish that the hedge relationship is highly effective is still required. We adopted this ASU on January 1, 2019 and the impact was not material. ASU No. 2018-15 (ASU 2018-15) Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, which addresses the accounting for implementation costs associated with a hosted service. The standard provides amendments to align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license). Laureate elected to early adopt ASU 2018-15 on January 1, 2019, and the impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements was not material. |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue | Revenue Revenue Recognition Laureate's revenues primarily consist of tuition and educational service revenues. We also generate other revenues from student fees, dormitory/residency fees and other education-related activities. These other revenues are less material to our overall financial results and have a tendency to trend with tuition revenues. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. These revenues are recognized net of scholarships and other discounts, refunds, waivers and the fair value of any guarantees made by Laureate related to student financing programs. Laureate's institutions have various billing and academic cycles. We determine revenue recognition through the five-step model prescribed by ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , as follows: • Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer; • Identification of the performance obligations in the contract; • Determination of the transaction price; • Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and • Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation. We assess collectibility on a portfolio basis prior to recording revenue. Generally, students cannot re-enroll for the next academic session without satisfactory resolution of any past-due amounts. If a student withdraws from an institution, Laureate's obligation to issue a refund depends on the refund policy at that institution and the timing of the student's withdrawal. Generally, our refund obligations are reduced over the course of the academic term. We record refunds as a reduction of deferred revenue as applicable. The following table shows the components of Revenues by reportable segment and as a percentage of total net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 : Brazil Mexico Andean Rest of World Online & Partnerships Corporate (1) Total 2019 Tuition and educational services $ 333,758 $ 178,088 $ 448,971 $ 63,677 $ 177,590 $ — $ 1,202,084 120 % Other 2,443 21,167 22,762 1,996 13,319 (1,053 ) 60,634 6 % Gross revenue $ 336,201 $ 199,255 $ 471,733 $ 65,673 $ 190,909 $ (1,053 ) $ 1,262,718 126 % Less: Discounts / waivers / scholarships (139,095 ) (36,800 ) (48,739 ) (5,088 ) (31,194 ) — (260,916 ) (26 )% Total $ 197,106 $ 162,455 $ 422,994 $ 60,585 $ 159,715 $ (1,053 ) $ 1,001,802 100 % 2018 Tuition and educational services $ 343,171 $ 174,964 $ 441,053 $ 63,110 $ 180,373 $ — $ 1,202,671 118 % Other 2,842 19,951 21,386 3,047 12,550 (3,890 ) 55,886 5 % Gross revenue $ 346,013 $ 194,915 $ 462,439 $ 66,157 $ 192,923 $ (3,890 ) $ 1,258,557 124 % Less: Discounts / waivers / scholarships (120,414 ) (35,270 ) (52,893 ) (4,816 ) (27,968 ) — (241,361 ) (24 )% Total $ 225,599 $ 159,645 $ 409,546 $ 61,341 $ 164,955 $ (3,890 ) $ 1,017,196 100 % (1) Includes the elimination of intersegment revenues.

Contract Balances The timing of billings, cash collections and revenue recognition results in accounts receivable (contract assets) and deferred revenue and student deposits (contract liabilities) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We have various billing and academic cycles and recognize student receivables when an academic session begins, although students generally enroll in courses prior to the start of the academic session. Receivables are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that we will collect substantially all of the consideration to which we are entitled in exchange for the goods and services that will be transferred to the student. We receive advance payments or deposits from our students before revenue is recognized, which are recorded as contract liabilities in deferred revenue and student deposits. Payment terms vary by university with some universities requiring payment in advance of the academic session and other universities allowing students to pay in installments over the term of the academic session. All of our contract assets are considered accounts receivable and are included within the Accounts and notes receivable balance in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Total accounts receivable from our contracts with students were $531,390 and $399,322 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. The increase in the contract assets balance at June 30, 2019 compared to December 31, 2018 is primarily driven by our enrollment cycles. The first and third calendar quarters generally coincide with the primary and secondary intakes for our larger institutions. All contract asset amounts are classified as current. Contract liabilities in the amount of $283,763 and $193,226 were included within the Deferred revenue and student deposits balance in the current liabilities section of the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. The increase in the contract liability balance during the period ended June 30, 2019 is the result of semester billings and cash payments received in advance of satisfying performance obligations, offset by revenue recognized during that period. Revenue recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2019 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the year was approximately $162,000 |

Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale | Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale As discussed in Note 1 , Description of Business , on August 9, 2018 , the Company announced that it plans to focus on its principal markets and will divest certain of its other markets . The principal markets that will remain (the Continuing Operations) include Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Peru, along with the Online & Partnerships segment and the institutions in Australia and New Zealand. At the time of the announcement on August 9, 2018 , the markets being divested ( the Discontinued Operations) included the institutions in Portugal and Spain, which were part of the Andean segment, all remaining institutions in the Central America & U.S. Campuses segment, and all remaining institutions in the Rest of World segment, except for Australia, New Zealand and the managed institutions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and China. The institutions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are managed under a contract that expires at the end of August 2019 and will not be renewed . As of June 30, 2019 , two VIE institutions are included in the Discontinued Operations. The divestitures are expected to create a more focused and simplified business model and generate proceeds that will be used for further repayment of long-term debt. The timing and ability to complete any of these transactions is uncertain and will be subject to market and other conditions, which may include regulatory approvals and consents of third parties. Summarized operating results and cash flows of the Discontinued Operations are presented in the following tables: For the three months ended June 30, 2019 2018 Revenues $ 147,947 $ 230,721 Depreciation and amortization — 9,517 Share-based compensation expense 106 427 Other direct costs 113,735 173,222 Operating income 34,106 47,555 Other non-operating income (expense) 3,436 (13,248 ) Pretax income of discontinued operations 37,542 34,307 Income tax (expense) benefit (3,942 ) 3,765 Income from discontinued operations, net of tax $ 33,600 $ 38,072 For the six months ended June 30, 2019 2018 Revenues $ 350,563 $ 483,793 Depreciation and amortization — 20,310 Share-based compensation expense 269 747 Other direct costs 253,382 350,020 Operating income 96,912 112,716 Other non-operating income (loss) 6,554 (13,173 ) Pretax income of discontinued operations 103,466 99,543 Income tax expense (13,292 ) (42,618 ) Income from discontinued operations, net of tax $ 90,174 $ 56,925 Operating cash flows of discontinued operations $ 13,157 $ 64,505 Investing cash flows of discontinued operations $ (11,007 ) $ (22,031 ) Financing cash flows of discontinued operations $ (25,712 ) $ (9,903 ) The assets and liabilities of the Discontinued Operations, which are subject to finalization, have been classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , in accordance with ASC 205. The assets and liabilities are recorded at the lower of their carrying values or their estimated ‘fair values less costs to sell.’ In addition to the Discontinued Operations, Centro Universitário do Norte (UniNorte), a traditional higher education institution located in the city of Manaus, Brazil, has also been classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 .

The Company recognized a gain on the sale of approximately $223,000 , which is included in gain on sales of discontinued operations on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Sale of Thailand Operations As previously disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K, on February 12, 2019, the Company completed the sale of its interests in Thai Education Holdings Company Limited, a Thailand corporation (TEDCO), and Far East Stamford International Co. Ltd. (FES), a Thailand corporation. TEDCO was the owner of a controlling interest in FES, which was the license holder for Stamford International University, which had three campuses in Thailand. The total purchase price was approximately $35,300 , and net proceeds were approximately $27,900 , net of debt assumed by the buyer and other customary closing adjustments. Of the $27,900 in net proceeds, $23,700 , or $20,300 net of cash sold, was received at closing. The balance of $4,200 was payable upon satisfaction of certain post-closing requirements; the first post-closing requirement was satisfied in May 2019 and the Company received $2,800 , leaving a remaining receivable of $1,400 .

Additional Gain on Sale of China Operations As previously disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K, on January 25, 2018 , the Company completed the sale of LEI Lie Ying Limited (LEILY). A portion of the purchase price was held back and subject to deduction of any indemnifiable losses payable to the buyer pursuant to the sale purchase agreement. On January 25, 2019, Laureate received HKD 71,463 (approximately US $9,100 at date of receipt) for the second and final holdback payment, net of legal fees. Also, as of December 31, 2018, the Company had recorded a liability of approximately $14,300 related to loss contingencies for which the Company had indemnified the buyer. During the first quarter of 2019, the legal matter that this loss contingency related to was settled, with no cost to the Company. Accordingly, during the six months ended June 30, 2019 , the Company reversed the loss contingency and recognized additional gain on the sale of LEILY of approximately $13,700 , which is included in gain on sales of discontinued operations on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Business and Geographic Segment Information | Business and Geographic Segment Information Laureate’s educational services are offered through six operating segments: Brazil, Mexico, Andean, Central America & U.S. Campuses, Rest of World and Online & Partnerships. Laureate determines its operating segments based on information utilized by the chief operating decision maker to allocate resources and assess performance. Our campus-based segments generate revenues by providing an education that emphasizes professional-oriented fields of study with undergraduate and graduate degrees in a wide range of disciplines. Our educational offerings are increasingly utilizing online and hybrid (a combination of online and in-classroom) courses and programs to deliver their curriculum. Many of our largest campus-based operations are in developing markets which are experiencing a growing demand for higher education based on favorable demographics and increasing secondary completion rates, driving increases in participation rates and resulting in continued growth in the number of higher education students. Traditional higher education students (defined as 18-24 year olds) have historically been served by public universities, which have limited capacity and are often underfunded, resulting in an inability to meet the growing student demand and employer requirements. This supply and demand imbalance has created a market opportunity for private sector participants. Most students finance their own education. However, there are some government-sponsored student financing programs which are discussed below. The campus-based segments include Brazil, Mexico, Andean, Central America & U.S. Campuses and Rest of World. Specifics related to each of these campus-based segments and our Online & Partnerships segment are discussed below . In Brazil, approximately 75% of post-secondary students are enrolled in private higher education institutions. While the federal government defines the national curricular guidelines, institutions are licensed to operate by city. Laureate owns 13 institutions in eight states throughout Brazil, with a particularly strong presence in the competitive São Paulo market. Many students finance their own education while others rely on the government-sponsored programs such as Prouni and FIES. As described in Note 4 , Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale , on April 16, 2019 , the Company entered into an agreement to divest UniNorte, a traditional higher education institution in Manaus, Brazil. Public universities in Mexico enroll approximately two thirds of students attending post-secondary education. However, many public institutions are faced with capacity constraints or the quality of the education is considered low. Laureate owns two institutions and is present throughout the country with a footprint of over 40 campuses. Each institution in Mexico has a national license. Students in our Mexican institutions typically finance their own education. The Andean segment includes institutions in Chile and Peru. In Chile, private universities enroll approximately 80% of post-secondary students. In Peru, the public sector plays a significant role, but private universities are increasingly providing the capacity to meet growing demand. In Chile, there are government-sponsored student financing programs. The Central America & U.S. Campuses segment includes institutions in Costa Rica, Honduras, Panama and the United States. Students in Central America typically finance their own education while students in the United States finance their education in a variety of ways, including U.S. Department of Education (DOE) Title IV programs. The entire Central America & U.S. Campuses segment is included in Discontinued Operations. The Rest of World segment includes an institution in the European country of Turkey, as well as institutions in the Middle East and Asia Pacific consisting of campus-based institutions with operations in Australia, Malaysia and New Zealand. Additionally, the Rest of World segment manages eight licensed institutions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and manages one additional institution in China through a joint venture arrangement. The institutions in Turkey and Malaysia are included in Discontinued Operations. The institutions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are managed under a contract that expires at the end of August 2019 and will not be renewed . The Online & Partnerships segment includes fully online institutions that offer professionally oriented degree programs in the United States through Walden University (Walden), a U.S.-based accredited institution, and through the University of Liverpool and the University of Roehampton in the United Kingdom. These online institutions primarily serve working adults with undergraduate and graduate degree program offerings. Students in the United States finance their education in a variety of ways, including Title IV programs. We no longer accept new enrollments at the University of Liverpool and the University of Roehampton . As discussed in Note 1 , Description of Business , and Note 4 , Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale , during the third quarter of 2018, a number of our subsidiaries met the requirements to be classified as discontinued operations, including the entire Central America & U.S. Campuses segment . As a result, the operations of the Central America & U.S. Campuses segment have been excluded from the segment information for all periods presented. In addition, the portion of the Rest of World reportable segment that is included in discontinued operations has also been excluded from the segment information for all periods presented. Intersegment transactions are accounted for in a similar manner as third-party transactions and are eliminated in consolidation. The Corporate amounts presented in the following tables include corporate charges that were not allocated to our reportable segments and adjustments to eliminate intersegment items. We evaluate segment performance based on Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP performance measure defined as Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes and equity in net income of affiliates, adding back the following items: Gain (loss) on sales of subsidiaries, net , Foreign currency exchange gain (loss), net , Other income, net , Gain on derivatives , Loss on debt extinguishment , Interest expense , Interest income , Depreciation and amortization expense, Loss on impairment of assets, Share-based compensation expense and expenses related to our Excellence-in-Process (EiP) initiative. EiP is an enterprise-wide initiative to optimize and standardize Laureate’s processes, creating vertical integration of procurement, information technology, finance, accounting and human resources. It included the establishment of regional shared services organizations (SSOs) around the world, as well as improvements to the Company's system of internal controls over financial reporting. The EiP initiative also includes other back- and mid-office areas, as well as certain student-facing activities, expenses associated with streamlining the organizational structure and certain non-recurring costs incurred in connection with the planned dispositions described in Note 4 , Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale , and the completed dispositions described in Note 5 , Dispositions . When we review Adjusted EBITDA on a segment basis, we exclude intercompany revenues and expenses related to network fees and royalties between our segments, which eliminate in consolidation. We use total assets as the measure of assets for reportable segments.

The fair value of our remaining debt instruments approximates carrying value based on their terms. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , our long-term debt was classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, based on the frequency and volume of trading in the brokered market. The estimated fair value of our debt was as follows: June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Carrying amount Estimated fair value Carrying amount Estimated fair value Total senior and other debt $ 1,346,357 $ 1,415,357 $ 2,664,050 $ 2,677,024 Loss on Debt Extinguishment As discussed in Note 5 , Dispositions , the Company completed the sale of St. Augustine on February 1, 2019 and used approximately $340,000 of the total $346,400 of net proceeds to repay a portion of the 2024 Term Loan under its Senior Secured Credit Facility, with the remaining proceeds utilized to repay borrowings outstanding for the revolver under its Senior Secured Credit Facility. In addition, during the first quarter of 2019, the Company elected to repay approximately $35,000 of the approximately $51,700 principal balance outstanding for certain notes payable at a real estate subsidiary in Chile. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company fully repaid the remaining balance outstanding under its 2024 Term Loan, using the proceeds received from the sales of its operations in India, Spain and Portugal, as discussed in Note 5 , Dispositions . The remaining proceeds were used to repay borrowings outstanding for the revolver under its Senior Secured Credit Facility. In connection with these debt repayments, the Company recorded a Loss on debt extinguishment of $15,595 and $26,217 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , respectively, related to the write off of a pro-rata portion of the unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the repaid debt balances, as well as the debt discount associated with the 2024 Term Loan. Certain Covenants As of June 30, 2019 , our senior long-term debt contained certain negative covenants including, among others: (1) limitations on additional indebtedness; (2) limitations on dividends; (3) limitations on asset sales, including the sale of ownership interests in subsidiaries and sale-leaseback transactions; and (4) limitations on liens, guarantees, loans or investments. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides, solely with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, that the Company shall not permit its Consolidated Senior Secured Debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio, as defined in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, to exceed 3.50x as of the last day of each quarter ending June 30, 2018 and thereafter. However, the agreement also provides that if (i) the Company’s Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio, as defined in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, is not greater than 4.75 x as of such date and (ii) less than 25% of the Revolving Credit Facility is utilized as of that date, then such financial covenant shall not apply. As of June 30, 2019 , these conditions were satisfied and, therefore, we were not subject to the leverage ratio covenant. In addition, notes payable at some of our locations contain financial maintenance covenants. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | Leases Laureate conducts a significant portion of its operations at leased facilities. These facilities include our corporate headquarters, other office locations, and many of Laureate's higher education facilities. Laureate analyzes each lease agreement to determine whether it should be classified as a finance lease or an operating lease. As a result of adopting ASC Topic 842, we recorded on our balance sheet significant asset and liability balances associated with the operating leases, as described further below. Operating Leases Our operating lease agreements are primarily for real estate space and are included within operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The terms of our operating leases vary and generally contain renewal options. Certain of these operating leases provide for increasing rent over the term of the lease. Laureate also leases certain equipment under noncancellable operating leases, which are typically for terms of 60 months or less. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Our variable lease payments consist of non-lease services related to the lease. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Many of our lessee agreements include options to extend the lease, which we do not include in our minimum lease terms unless they are reasonably certain to be exercised. Rental expense for lease payments related to operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. On occasion, Laureate has entered into sublease agreements for certain leased office space; however, the sublease income from these agreements is immaterial.

Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Noncontrolling Interest Holder Put Arrangements The following section provides a summary table and description of our noncontrolling interest holder put arrangements, which relate to Discontinued Operations, that Laureate had outstanding as of June 30, 2019 . Laureate has elected to accrete changes in the arrangements’ redemption values over the period from the date of issuance to the earliest redemption date. The redeemable noncontrolling interests are recorded at the greater of the accreted redemption value or the traditional noncontrolling interest. Until the first exercise date, the put instruments’ reported values may be lower than the final amounts that will be required to settle the minority put arrangements. As of June 30, 2019 , the carrying value of all noncontrolling interest holder put arrangements was $10,779 . If the minority put arrangements were all exercised at June 30, 2019 , Laureate would be obligated to pay the noncontrolling interest holders an estimated amount of $10,779 , as summarized in the following table: Nominal Currency First Exercisable Date Estimated Value as of June 30, 2019 redeemable within 12-months: Reported Noncontrolling interest holder put arrangements INTI Education Holdings Sdn Bhd (Inti Holdings) - 10.10% MYR Current $ 10,779 $ 10,779 Total noncontrolling interest holder put arrangements 10,779 10,779 Puttable common stock - not currently redeemable USD * — 1,714 Total redeemable noncontrolling interests and equity $ 10,779 $ 12,493 * Contingently redeemable MYR: Malaysian Ringgit Laureate’s noncontrolling interest put arrangements are specified in agreements with each noncontrolling interest holder. The terms of these agreements determine the measurement of the redemption value of the put options based on a non-GAAP measure of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA, or recurring EBITDA), the definition of which varies for each particular contract. Commitments and contingencies are generally denominated in foreign currencies. Other Loss Contingencies Laureate is subject to legal actions arising in the ordinary course of its business. In management's opinion, we have adequate legal defenses, insurance coverage and/or accrued liabilities with respect to the eventuality of such actions. We do not believe that any settlement would have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. Contingent Liabilities for Taxes As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , Laureate has recorded cumulative liabilities totaling $53,603 and $52,880 , respectively, for taxes other-than-income tax, principally payroll-tax-related uncertainties recorded at the time of an acquisition, of which $3,250 and $4,999 , respectively, were classified as held for sale. The changes in this recorded liability are related to acquisitions, interest and penalty accruals, changes in tax laws, expirations of statutes of limitations, settlements and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The terms of the statutes of limitations on these contingencies vary but can be up to 10 years . These liabilities were included in current and long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the recorded values of non-income tax contingencies impact operating income and interest expense, while changes in the related indemnification assets impact only operating income. The total (decrease) increase to operating income for adjustments to non-income tax contingencies and indemnification assets was $(4,609) and $928 , respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 . In addition, as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , Laureate has recorded cumulative liabilities for income tax contingencies of $54,823 and $64,157 , respectively, of which $4,031 and $11,208 , respectively, were classified as held for sale. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , indemnification assets primarily related to acquisition contingencies were $79,952 and $82,061 , respectively, of which $0 and $476 , respectively, were classified as held for sale. These indemnification assets primarily cover contingencies for income taxes and taxes other-than-income taxes. We have also recorded receivables of approximately $19,900 and $19,000 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively, from the former owner of one of our Brazil institutions which is guaranteed by future rental payments to the former owner. In addition, we have identified certain contingencies, primarily tax-related, that we have assessed as being reasonably possible of loss, but not probable of loss, and could have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations if the outcomes are unfavorable. In most cases, Laureate has received indemnifications from the former owners and/or noncontrolling interest holders of the acquired businesses for contingencies, and therefore, we do not believe we will sustain an economic loss even if we are required to pay these additional amounts. In cases where we are not indemnified, the unrecorded contingencies are not individually material and are primarily in Brazil. In the aggregate, we estimate that the reasonably possible loss for these unrecorded contingencies in Brazil could be up to approximately $43,000 if the outcomes were unfavorable in all cases. Other Loss Contingencies Laureate has accrued liabilities for certain civil actions against our institutions, a portion of which existed prior to our acquisition of these entities. Laureate intends to vigorously defend against these matters. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , approximately $34,000 and $29,000 , respectively, of loss contingencies were included in Other long-term liabilities and Other current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , $3,100 and $18,000 , respectively, of loss contingencies for Discontinued Operations were classified as liabilities held for sale. The decrease is primarily related to the reversal of loss contingencies recorded in 2018 in connection with the sale of LEILY in China, as discussed in Note 5 , Dispositions . During the first quarter of 2019, loss contingencies were reversed following the settlement of a legal matter related to LEILY with no cost to the Company, resulting in additional gain on sale. Material Guarantees – Student Financing The accredited Chilean institutions in the Laureate network also participate in a government-sponsored student financing program known as Crédito con Aval del Estado (the CAE Program). The CAE Program was formally implemented by the Chilean government in 2006 to promote higher education in Chile for lower socio-economic level students in good academic standing. The CAE Program involves tuition financing and guarantees that are provided by our institutions and the government. As part of the CAE Program, these institutions provide guarantees which result in contingent liabilities to third-party financing institutions, beginning at 90% of the tuition loans made directly to qualified students enrolled through the CAE Program and declining to 60% over time. The guarantees by these institutions are in effect during the period in which the student is enrolled , and the guarantees are assumed entirely by the government upon the student’s graduation. When a student leaves one of Laureate's institutions and enrolls in another CAE-qualified institution, the Laureate institution will remain guarantor of the tuition loans that have been granted up to the date of transfer, and until the student's graduation from a CAE-qualified institution. The maximum potential amount of payments our institutions could be required to make under the CAE Program was approximately $516,000 and $499,000 at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. This maximum potential amount assumes that all students in the CAE Program do not graduate, so that our guarantee would not be assigned to the government, and that all students default on the full amount of the CAE-qualified loan balances. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , we recorded $37,743 and $28,254 , respectively, as estimated long-term guarantee liabilities for these obligations. Material Guarantees – Other In conjunction with the purchase of Universidade Potiguar in Brazil (UNP), Laureate pledged all of the acquired shares as a guarantee of our payments of rents as they become due. In the event that we default on any payment, the pledge agreement provides for a forfeiture of the relevant pledged shares. In the event of forfeiture, Laureate may be required to transfer the books and management of UNP to the former owners. Laureate acquired the remaining 49% ownership interest in UAM Brazil in April 2013. As part of the agreement to purchase the 49% ownership interest, Laureate pledged 49% of its total shares in UAM Brazil as a guarantee of our payment obligations under the purchase agreement. In the event that we default on any payment, the agreement provides for a forfeiture of the pledged shares. In connection with the purchase of FMU Education Group on September 12, 2014, Laureate pledged its acquired shares to third-party lenders as a guarantee of our payment obligations under the loans that financed a portion of the purchase price. The shares are pledged until full repayment of the loans, which mature in April 2021. In connection with a loan agreement entered into by a Laureate subsidiary in Peru, all of the shares of Universidad Privada del Norte, one of our universities, were pledged to the third-party lender as a guarantee of the payment obligations under the loan. Standby Letters of Credit, Surety Bonds and Other Commitments As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , Laureate's outstanding letters of credit (LOCs) and surety bonds primarily consisted of the items discussed below. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , we had approximately $127,000 and $139,000 , respectively, posted as LOCs in favor of the DOE. These LOCs were required to allow Walden, NSAD and, in 2018, St. Augustine to continue participating in the DOE Title IV program. These LOCs are recorded on Walden and a corporate entity and are fully collateralized with cash equivalents and certificates of deposit, which are classified as Restricted cash on our June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , we had approximately $5,700 posted as cash collateral for LOCs related to the Spanish tax audits, which was recorded in Continuing Operations and classified as Restricted cash on our June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 Consolidated Balance Sheets. The cash collateral is related to the final assessment issued by the Spanish Taxing Authority (STA) in October 2018 for the 2011 to 2013 tax audit period. As part of our normal operations, our insurers issue surety bonds on our behalf, as required by various state education authorities in the United States. We are obligated to reimburse our insurers for any payments made by the insurers under the surety bonds. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the total face amount of these surety bonds was $22,503 and $ 22,204 , respectively. These bonds are fully collateralized with cash, which was classified as Restricted cash on our June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 Consolidated Balance Sheets. In November 2016, in order to continue participating in Prouni, a federal program that offers tax benefits designed to increase higher education participation rates in Brazil, UAM Brazil posted a guarantee in the amount of $15,300 . In connection with the issuance of the guarantee, UAM Brazil obtained a non-collateralized surety bond from a third party in order to secure the guarantee. The cost of the surety bond was $1,400 , of which half was reimbursed by the former owner of UAM Brazil, and is being amortized over the five -year term. The Company believes that this matter will not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Receivables [Abstract] | |
Financing Receivables | Financing Receivables Laureate’s financing receivables consist primarily of trade receivables related to student tuition financing programs with an initial term in excess of one year. We have offered long-term financing through the execution of note receivable agreements with students at some of our institutions. Our disclosures include financing receivables that are classified in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as both current and long-term, reported in accordance with ASC 310, “Receivables.” Laureate’s financing receivables balances were as follows: June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Financing receivables $ 36,217 $ 16,531 Allowance for doubtful accounts (6,371 ) (6,395 ) Financing receivables, net of allowances $ 29,846 $ 10,136 We do not purchase financing receivables in the ordinary course of our business. We may sell certain receivables that are significantly past due. No material amounts of financing receivables were sold during the periods reported herein. Delinquency is the primary indicator of credit quality for our financing receivables. Receivable balances are considered delinquent when contractual payments on the loan become past due. Delinquent financing receivables are placed on non-accrual status for interest income. The accrual of interest is resumed when the financing receivable becomes contractually current and when collection of all remaining amounts due is reasonably assured. We record an Allowance for doubtful accounts to reduce our financing receivables to their net realizable value. The Allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the age of the receivables, the status of past-due amounts, historical collection trends, current economic conditions, and student enrollment status. Each of our institutions evaluates its balances for potential impairment. We consider impaired loans to be those that are past due one year or greater, and those that are modified as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR). The aging of financing receivables grouped by country portfolio was as follows: Chile Other Total As of June 30, 2019 Amounts past due less than one year $ 9,881 $ 1,086 $ 10,967 Amounts past due one year or greater 3,143 140 3,283 Total past due (on non-accrual status) 13,024 1,226 14,250 Not past due 20,588 1,379 21,967 Total financing receivables $ 33,612 $ 2,605 $ 36,217 As of December 31, 2018 Amounts past due less than one year $ 7,618 $ 644 $ 8,262 Amounts past due one year or greater 2,879 192 3,071 Total past due (on non-accrual status) 10,497 836 11,333 Not past due 4,980 218 5,198 Total financing receivables $ 15,477 $ 1,054 $ 16,531 The following is a rollforward of the Allowance for doubtful accounts related to financing receivables for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , grouped by country portfolio: Chile Other Total Balance at December 31, 2018 $ (6,108 ) $ (287 ) $ (6,395 ) Charge-offs 1,071 495 1,566 Recoveries — — — Reclassifications — — — Provision (731 ) (675 ) (1,406 ) Currency adjustments (129 ) (7 ) (136 ) Balance at June 30, 2019 $ (5,897 ) $ (474 ) $ (6,371 ) Balance at December 31, 2017 $ (6,107 ) $ (365 ) $ (6,472 ) Charge-offs 944 — 944 Recoveries — — — Reclassifications — — — Provision (745 ) 68 (677 ) Currency adjustments 162 2 164 Balance at June 30, 2018 $ (5,746 ) $ (295 ) $ (6,041 ) Restructured Receivables A TDR is a financing receivable in which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and Laureate has granted an economic concession to the student debtor that we would not otherwise consider. When we modify financing receivables in a TDR, Laureate typically offers the student debtor an extension of the loan maturity and/or a reduction in the accrued interest balance. In certain situations, we may offer to restructure a financing receivable in a manner that ultimately results in the forgiveness of contractually specified principal balances. Our only TDRs are in Chile. The number of financing receivable accounts and the pre- and post-modification account balances modified under the terms of a TDR during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows: Number of Financing Receivable Accounts Pre-Modification Balance Outstanding Post-Modification Balance Outstanding 2019 327 $ 1,100 $ 980 2018 326 $ 1,092 $ 1,036 The preceding table represents accounts modified under the terms of a TDR during the six months ended June 30, 2019 , whereas the following table represents accounts modified as a TDR between January 1, 2018 and June 30, 2019 that subsequently defaulted during the six months ended June 30, 2019 : Number of Financing Receivable Accounts Balance at Default Total 174 $ 431 The following table represents accounts modified as a TDR between January 1, 2017 and June 30, 2018 that subsequently defaulted during the six months ended June 30, 2018 : Number of Financing Receivable Accounts Balance at Default Total 104 $ 351 |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments | Derivative Instruments In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency values and interest rate changes. We may seek to control a portion of these risks through a risk management program that includes the use of derivative instruments. The interest and principal payments for Laureate’s senior long-term debt arrangements are to be paid primarily in USD. Our ability to make debt payments is subject to fluctuations in the value of the USD against foreign currencies, since a majority of our operating cash used to make these payments is generated by subsidiaries with functional currencies other than USD. As part of our overall risk management policies, Laureate has at times entered into foreign currency swap contracts and floating-to-fixed interest rate swap contracts. In addition, we occasionally enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the impact of other non-functional currency-denominated receivables and payables. We do not enter into speculative or leveraged transactions, nor do we hold or issue derivatives for trading purposes. Laureate reports all derivatives at fair value. These contracts are recognized as either assets or liabilities, depending upon the derivative’s fair value. Gains or losses associated with the change in the fair value of these swaps are recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Operations on a current basis over the term of the contracts, unless designated and effective as a hedge. For swaps that are designated and effective as cash flow hedges, gains or losses associated with the change in fair value of the swaps are recognized in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of AOCI and amortized into earnings as a component of Interest expense over the term of the related hedged items. Upon early termination of an effective interest rate swap designated as a cash flow hedge, unrealized gains or losses are deferred in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of AOCI and are amortized as an adjustment to Interest expense over the period during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. For derivatives that are both designated and effective as net investment hedges, gains or losses associated with the change in fair value of the derivatives are recognized on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of AOCI. As of June 30, 2019 , we held no derivatives. The reported fair values of our derivatives, which are classified in Derivative instruments on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, were as follows: June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Derivatives designated as hedging instruments: Long-term assets: Net investment cross currency swaps $ — $ 3,259 Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments: Current liabilities: Cross currency swaps — 4,021 Long-term liabilities: Cross currency and interest rate swaps — 6,656 Total derivative instrument assets $ — $ 3,259 Total derivative instrument liabilities $ — $ 10,677 Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments Cash Flow Hedge - 2024 Term Loan Interest Rate Swaps In May 2017, Laureate entered into, and designated as cash flow hedges, four pay-fixed, receive-floating amortizing interest rate swaps with notional amounts of $100,000 , $100,000 , $200,000 and $300,000 , respectively. These notional amounts matched the corresponding principal of the 2024 Term Loan borrowings of which these swaps were effectively hedging the interest payments. As such, the notional values amortized annually based on the terms of the agreements to match the principal borrowings as they were repaid. These swaps effectively fixed the floating interest rate on the term loan to reduce exposure to variability in cash flows attributable to changes in the USD-LIBOR-BBA swap rate. All four swaps were fully settled on August 21, 2018, prior to their May 31, 2022 maturity date, with the remaining AOCI to be ratably reclassified into income through Interest expense over the remaining maturity period of the 2024 Term Loans. The cash received at settlement from the swap counterparties was $14,117 . During the quarter ended June 30, 2019 , the Company accelerated the reclassification of amounts in AOCI to earnings as a result of the hedged forecasted transactions becoming probable not to occur, due to the full repayment of the 2024 Term Loan in June 2019 using proceeds from the sale of our institutions in Portugal and Spain. The accelerated amounts were a gain of approximately $9,800 and were recorded as a decrease to Interest expense. Prior to settlement of the swaps, they were determined to be 100% effective; therefore, the amount of gain or loss recognized in income on the ineffective portion was $0 . Net Investment Hedge - Cross Currency Swaps In December 2017, Laureate entered into two EUR-USD cross currency swaps (net investment hedges) to hedge the foreign currency exchange volatility on operations of our Euro functional currency subsidiaries and better match our cash flows with the currencies in which our debt obligations are denominated. Both swaps had an effective date of December 22, 2017 and a maturity date of November 2, 2020, and were designated at inception as effective net investment hedges. In April 2019, the Company terminated both EUR-USD cross currency swaps for a net settlement received of $7,679 , which is included in Settlement of derivatives related to sale of discontinued operations and net investment hedge on our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The terms of the swaps specified that at maturity on the first swap, Laureate would deliver the notional amount of EUR 50,000 and receive USD $59,210 at an implied exchange rate of 1.1842 and at maturity on the second swap, Laureate would deliver the notional amount of EUR 50,000 and receive USD $59,360 at an implied exchange rate of 1.1872 . Semiannually until maturity, Laureate was obligated to pay 5.63% and receive 8.25% on EUR 50,000 and USD $59,210 , respectively, on the first swap and pay 5.6675% and receive 8.25% on EUR 50,000 and USD $59,360 , respectively, on the second swap. The swaps were determined to be 100% effective; therefore, the amount of gain or loss recognized in income on the ineffective portion of derivative instruments designated as hedging instruments was $0 . The accumulated gain recognized in AOCI will be deferred from earnings until the sale or liquidation of the hedged investee. As of December 31, 2018 , these swaps had an estimated fair value of $3,259 , which was recorded in Derivative Instruments as a long-term asset. The table below shows the total recorded unrealized (loss) gain in Comprehensive income for the derivatives designated as hedging instruments. The impact of these derivative instruments on Comprehensive income, Interest expense and AOCI were as follows: For the three months ended June 30: (Loss) Gain Recognized in Comprehensive Income (Effective Portion) Income Statement Location Gain Reclassified Total Consolidated Interest Expense 2019 2018 2019 2018 2019 2018 Cash flow hedge Interest rate swaps $ (10,606 ) $ 2,556 Interest expense $ 10,606 $ 260 Net investment hedge Cross currency swaps 47 7,570 N/A — — Total $ (10,559 ) $ 10,126 $ 10,606 $ 260 $ (41,467 ) $ (60,110 ) For the six months ended June 30: (Loss) Gain Recognized in Comprehensive Income Income Statement Location Gain (Loss) Reclassified Total Consolidated Interest Expense 2019 2018 2019 2018 2019 2018 Cash flow hedge Interest rate swaps $ (11,818 ) $ 9,244 Interest expense $ 11,818 $ (38 ) Net investment hedge Cross currency swaps 3,868 3,092 N/A — — Total $ (7,950 ) $ 12,336 $ 11,818 $ (38 ) $ (96,122 ) $ (123,445 ) Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments Derivatives related to Series A Preferred Stock Offering In December 2016 and January 2017, the Company issued shares of convertible redeemable preferred stock (the Series A Preferred Stock) and identified several embedded derivatives related to certain contingent redemption features of the Series A Preferred Stock. These derivatives were not designated as hedges for accounting purposes thus the changes in estimated fair value were recognized as a component of earnings. The Series A Preferred Stock was converted into Class A common stock on April 23, 2018. The estimated fair value of these derivatives at the conversion date was approximately $140,300 ; accordingly, the derivative assets were recorded at their estimated fair values through a corresponding gain on derivatives, a component of non-operating income. The increase in the fair value of the derivatives can be attributed to the use of the Monte Carlo Simulation Method to value the derivatives prior to the April 23, 2018 conversion date, when the probability of conversion increased to 100% and the valuation inputs became definitive. In connection with the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into Class A common stock, the carrying value of the derivative assets was reclassified into equity in April 2018. EUR to USD Foreign Currency Swaps - Spain and Portugal As disclosed in the 2018 Form 10-K, in December 2018, Laureate entered into two EUR to USD swap agreements in connection with the signing of the sale agreement for the subsidiaries in Spain and Portugal. The purpose of the swaps was to mitigate the risk of foreign currency exposure on the sale proceeds. The first swap was deal contingent, with the settlement date occurring on the second business day following the completion of the sale. On the settlement date, Laureate delivered the notional amount of EUR 275,000 and received USD $314,573 at a rate of exchange of 1.1439 , which resulted in a realized gain of $5,088 . The second swap was a put/call option with a maturity date of April 8, 2019, where Laureate could put the notional amount of EUR 275,000 and call the USD amount of $310,750 at an exchange rate of 1.13 . Based on expected timing of the sale transaction, the swap was terminated on April 2, 2019, resulting in a payment to the counterparty of $980 that included a deferred premium payment net of proceeds received. The realized gain of $5,088 and the payment of $980 are included in Settlement of derivatives related to sale of discontinued operations and net investment hedge in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. As of December 31, 2018 , these swaps had an aggregate estimated fair value of $4,021 , which was recorded in Derivative instruments as a current liability through a charge to unrealized loss on derivatives. These swaps were not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. In addition to the swaps above, in order to continue to mitigate the risk of foreign currency exposure on the expected sale proceeds for Spain and Portugal in advance of the May 31, 2019 sale closing date, in April 2019, Laureate also entered into seven EUR to USD swap agreements with a combined notional amount of EUR 375,000 . On the maturity date of May 15, 2019, Laureate paid the EUR notional amount and received a combined total of USD $423,003 at a rate of exchange of 1.128007 , resulting in a gain of $1,644 . In May 2019, Laureate entered into nine EUR to USD swap agreements with a combined notional amount of EUR 532,000 . On the maturity date of June 4, 2019, Laureate paid the EUR notional amount and received a combined total of $597,149 at a rate of exchange of 1.122461 , resulting in a realized loss of approximately $565 . The realized gain of $1,644 and the realized loss of $565 are included in Settlement of derivatives related to sale of discontinued operations and net investment hedge on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. These swaps were not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. EUR to USD Foreign Currency Swaps - Cyprus and Italy As disclosed in the 2018 Form 10-K, in December 2017 , the Company entered into a total of six EUR to USD forward exchange swap agreements in connection with the sale of its institutions in Cyprus and Italy. The purpose of the swaps was to mitigate the risk of foreign currency exposure on the sale proceeds. The swaps had an aggregate notional amount of EUR 200,000 and matured on January 16, 2018, resulting in a total realized loss on derivatives of $9,960 , which was included in Settlement of derivatives related to sale of discontinued operations and net investment hedge on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The swaps were not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. CLP to Unidad de Fomento (UF) Cross Currency and Interest Rate Swaps The cross currency and interest rate swap agreements are intended to provide a better correlation between our debt obligations and operating currencies. In 2010, one of our subsidiaries in Chile entered into four cross currency and interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of approximately $31,000 , and convert CLP-denominated, floating-rate debt to fixed-rate UF-denominated debt. The UF is a Chilean inflation-adjusted unit of account. One of the swaps was scheduled to mature on December 1, 2024, and the remaining three were scheduled to mature on July 1, 2025 (the CLP to UF cross currency and interest rate swaps); however, during the first quarter 2019, the Company elected to settle all four swaps for a net cash payment of approximately USD $8,200 . In addition, Chile also elected to repay a portion of the principal balance outstanding for certain notes payable, as discussed in Note 9 , Debt . This payment is included in Payments for settlement of derivative contracts on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The CLP to UF cross currency and interest rate swaps were not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. As of December 31, 2018 , these swaps had an estimated fair value of $6,656 which was recorded in Derivative instruments as a long-term liability. Components of the reported Gain on derivatives not designated as hedging instruments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations were as follows: For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Unrealized (Loss) Gain Contingent redemption features - Series A Preferred Stock $ — $ (28,607 ) $ — $ (42,140 ) Cross currency and interest rate swaps (2,555 ) 53 4,021 4,358 Interest rate swaps — 48 — 103 (2,555 ) (28,506 ) 4,021 (37,679 ) Realized Gain (Loss) Contingent redemption features - Series A Preferred Stock — 140,319 — 140,319 Cross currency and interest rate swaps 5,187 (217 ) 3,794 (10,384 ) 5,187 140,102 3,794 129,935 Total Gain (Loss) Contingent redemption features - Series A Preferred Stock — 111,712 — 98,179 Cross currency and interest rate swaps 2,632 (164 ) 7,815 (6,026 ) Interest rate swaps — 48 — 103 Gain on derivatives, net $ 2,632 $ 111,596 $ 7,815 $ 92,256 Credit Risk and Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features Laureate’s derivatives expose us to credit risk to the extent that the counterparty may possibly fail to perform its contractual obligation. The amount of our credit risk exposure is equal to the fair value of the derivative when any of the derivatives are in a net gain position. As of December 31, 2018 , the estimated fair value of derivatives in a gain position was $3,259 . Laureate has limited its credit risk by only entering into derivative transactions with highly rated major financial institutions. We have not entered into collateral agreements with our derivatives' counterparties. At June 30, 2019 , we held no derivatives and thus had no credit risk. Laureate's agreements with its derivative counterparties contain a provision under which we could be declared in default on our derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to a default on the indebtedness. As of December 31, 2018 , we had not breached any default provisions and had not posted any collateral related to these agreements. If we had breached any of these provisions, we could have been required to settle the obligations under the derivative agreements for an amount that we believe would approximate their estimated fair value of $10,677 as of December 31, 2018 . |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Laureate uses the liability method to account for income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. For interim purposes, we also apply ASC 740-270, ‘‘Income Taxes - Interim Reporting.’’ Laureate's income tax provisions for all periods consist of federal, state and foreign income taxes. The tax provisions for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were based on estimated full-year effective tax rates, after giving effect to significant items related specifically to the interim periods, including the mix of income for the period between higher-taxed and lower-taxed jurisdictions. Laureate has operations in multiple countries at various statutory tax rates or which are tax-exempt entities, and other operations that are loss-making entities for which it is not more likely than not that a tax benefit will be realized on the loss. Laureate records interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of Income tax expense. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 , Laureate recognized interest and penalties related to income taxes of $2,642 . Laureate had $28,993 of accrued interest and penalties as of June 30, 2019 . During the six months ended June 30, 2019 , Laureate derecognized $8,482 of previously accrued interest and penalties. Approximately $25,848 of unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, will affect the effective income tax rate. It is reasonably possible that Laureate’s unrecognized tax benefits may decrease within the next 12 months by up to approximately $13,449 as a result of the lapse of statutes of limitations and as a result of the final settlement and resolution of outstanding tax matters in various jurisdictions. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings (Loss) Per Share | Earnings (Loss) Per Share We have two classes of common stock, Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Other than voting rights, the Class B common stock has the same rights as the Class A common stock and therefore both are treated as the same class of stock for purposes of the earnings per share calculation. Laureate computes basic earnings per share (EPS) by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if share-based compensation awards, contingently issuable shares, or convertible securities were exercised or converted into common stock. To calculate the diluted EPS, the basic weighted average number of shares is increased by the dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and contingently issuable shares determined using the treasury stock method, and convertible securities using the if-converted method. The following tables summarize the computations of basic and diluted earnings per share: For the three months ended June 30, 2019 2018 Numerator used in basic and diluted earnings per common share for continuing operations: Income from continuing operations $ 104,500 $ 173,881 Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests 2,315 548 Income from continuing operations attributable to Laureate Education, Inc. 106,815 174,429 Accretion of redemption value of redeemable noncontrolling interests and equity 194 882 Adjusted for: accretion related to noncontrolling interests and equity redeemable at fair value — (556 ) Accretion of Series A Preferred Stock — (4,650 ) Gain upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock — 74,110 Subtotal: accretion of Series A Preferred Stock and other redeemable noncontrolling interests and equity 194 69,786 Net income from continuing operations available to common stockholders for basic earnings per share 107,009 244,215 Adjusted for: accretion of Series A Preferred Stock — 4,650 Adjusted for: gain upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock — (74,110 ) Net income from continuing operations available to common stockholders for diluted earnings per share $ 107,009 $ 174,755 Numerator used in basic and diluted earnings per common share for discontinued operations: Income from discontinued operations, net of tax $ 33,600 $ 38,072 Gain on sales of discontinued operations, net of tax 641,516 12,003 Income attributable to noncontrolling interests (339 ) (92 ) Net income from discontinued operations for basic and diluted earnings per share $ 674,777 $ 49,983 Denominator used in basic and diluted earnings per common share: Basic weighted average shares outstanding 224,658 214,864 Dilutive effect of Series A Preferred Stock — 9,135 Dilutive effect of stock options 25 — Dilutive effect of restricted stock units 263 355 Diluted weighted average shares outstanding 224,946 224,354 Basic earnings per share: Income from continuing operations $ 0.48 $ 1.14 Income from discontinued operations 3.00 0.23 Basic earnings per share $ 3.48 $ 1.37 Diluted earnings per share: Income from continuing operations $ 0.48 $ 0.78 Income from discontinued operations 3.00 0.22 Diluted earnings per share $ 3.48 $ 1.00 For the six months ended June 30, 2019 2018 Numerator used in basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share for continuing operations: (Loss) income from continuing operations $ (5,814 ) $ 8,246 Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests (416 ) (1,111 ) (Loss) income from continuing operations attributable to Laureate Education, Inc.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurement | Fair Value Measurement Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to settle a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting standards utilize a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels, which are described below: • Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; • Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability; • Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity. These levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk of liquidity associated with the financial assets or liabilities disclosed. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement, as required under ASC 820-10, ‘‘Fair Value Measurement.’’ Derivative instruments Laureate uses derivative instruments as economic hedges for bank debt, foreign exchange fluctuations and interest rate risk. Their values are derived using valuation models commonly used for derivatives. These valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, forward-price yield curves, notional quantities, measures of volatility and correlations of such inputs. Our valuation models also reflect measurements for credit risk. Laureate concluded that the fair values of our derivatives are based on unobservable inputs, or Level 3 assumptions. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Company's derivative instruments is our own credit risk. Holding other inputs constant, a significant increase (decrease) in our own credit risk would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement for the Company's derivative instruments. Equity securities - preferred stock investment In 2013, Laureate purchased approximately 1,020 shares (the Shares) of preferred stock of a private education company for $5,000 . This equity security did not have a readily determinable fair value. As of June 30, 2019, Laureate has recorded its investment at an estimated fair value of $11,116 and recognized a non-operating gain of $6,116 , based on interest expressed by an existing investor in this company to purchase the Shares. The investee also completed a round of financing during the second quarter of 2019 at a similar valuation. Laureate deems these observable transactions to be Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. Laureate’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2019 were as follows: Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets Derivative instruments $ — $ — $ — $ — Equity securities - preferred stock investment 11,116 — 11,116 — Liabilities Derivative instruments $ — $ — $ — $ — Laureate’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2018 were as follows: Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets Derivative instruments $ 3,259 $ — $ — $ 3,259 Liabilities Derivative instruments $ 10,677 $ — $ — $ 10,677 The changes in our Level 3 Derivative instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were as follows: Balance at December 31, 2018 $ (7,418 ) Gain included in earnings: Unrealized gains, net 4,021 Realized gains, net 3,794 Included in other comprehensive income (7,950 ) Settlements (4,634 ) Reclassification, currency translation adjustment and other 12,187 Balance at June 30, 2019 $ — The following table presents quantitative information regarding the significant unobservable inputs and valuation techniques utilized in the fair value measurements of the Company's assets/(liabilities) classified as Level 2 and 3 as of June 30, 2019 : Fair Value at June 30, 2019 Valuation Technique Unobservable Input Range/Input Value Derivative instruments - cross currency swaps $ — Discounted Cash Flow Credit Risk 3.62% Equity securities - preferred stock investment $ 11,116 Market Approach n/a n/a |

(the UIP Buyers). Pursuant to the UIP Agreement, the UIP Buyers will purchase from the UIP Sellers 100% of the ownership interests of UIP, a higher education institution in Panama. Excelencia y Superacion S.A. (EXSUSA), an affiliate of the UIP Buyers, is also party to the UIP Agreement as a guarantor of the UIP Sellers’ obligations under the UIP Agreement. Also in connection with the UIP Agreement and as a condition to closing, the UIP Sellers agreed to cause Desarrollos Urbanos Educativos S. de R.L. (DUE), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, to enter into a real estate purchase agreement (the DUE Real Estate Purchase Agreement) with the UIP Buyers for the sale of real estate owned by DUE, which serves as the campus of UIP. The total expected enterprise value under the UIP Agreement and the DUE Real Estate Purchase Agreement is approximately $86,750 . The transactions contemplated under the agreements are contingent on customary closing conditions including regulatory approvals, which may take several months. Inti Education Holdings Sdn. Bhd. (Inti Holdings) As previously reported, on December 11, 2017, Exeter Street Holdings Sdn. Bhd., a Malaysia corporation (Exeter Street), and Laureate Education Asia Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (Laureate Asia), both of which are indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, entered into a sale purchase agreement (as amended on January 17, 2019, the Inti Agreement) with Comprehensive Education Pte. Ltd., a Singapore corporation (Comprehensive, the purchaser) that is an affiliate of Affinity Equity Partners, a private equity firm based in Hong Kong. Pursuant to the Inti Agreement, Comprehensive agreed to purchase from Exeter Street all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of Inti Holdings, and Laureate Asia agreed to guarantee certain obligations of Exeter Street. Inti Holdings is the indirect owner of INTI University and Colleges, a higher education institution with five campuses in Malaysia. The closing of the transaction under the Inti Agreement was subject to certain conditions, including approval by regulators in Malaysia, which approval was obtained on June 24, 2019. On June 25, 2019, the Company notified Comprehensive that the conditions precedent had been duly satisfied and scheduled closing for July 12, 2019. On July 9, 2019, Comprehensive notified the Company that it disagreed with the Company’s position that the conditions precedent had been satisfied and formally moved to terminate the Inti Agreement, an act viewed by the Company as a repudiatory breach of the Inti Agreement. The Company is currently evaluating all options and continues to classify Inti Holdings as a discontinued operation. Stock Repurchase Program In July 2019, the Company's board of directors approved a new stock repurchase program to acquire up to $150,000 of the Company’s Class A common stock. The Company's proposed repurchases may be made from time to time on the open market at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, in block trades and/or through other legally permissible means, depending on market conditions and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Repurchases may be effected pursuant to a trading plan adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. The Company's board of directors will review the share repurchase program periodically and may authorize adjustment of its terms and size or suspend or discontinue the program. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
The Variable Interest Entity (VIE) Arrangements | The Variable Interest Entity (VIE) Arrangements Laureate consolidates in its financial statements certain internationally based educational organizations that do not have shares or other equity ownership interests. Although these educational organizations may be considered not-for-profit entities in their home countries and they are operated in compliance with their respective not-for-profit legal regimes, we believe they do not meet the definition of a not-for-profit entity under GAAP, and therefore we treat them as ‘‘for-profit’’ entities for accounting purposes. These entities generally cannot declare dividends or distribute their net assets to the entities that control them. Under ASC 810-10, ‘‘Consolidation,’’ we have determined that these institutions are VIEs and that Laureate is the primary beneficiary of these VIEs because we have, as further described herein: (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly affect their educational and economic performance and (2) the right to receive economic benefits from contractual and other arrangements with the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. We account for the acquisition of the right to control a VIE in accordance with ASC 805, ‘‘Business Combinations.’’ |
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards | Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02 (ASU 2016-02), Leases (Topic 842) On February 25, 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize on their balance sheet a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a lease liability for virtually all of their leases (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease). The liability is equal to the present value of the lease payments. The asset is based on the liability, subject to adjustment, such as for initial direct costs and uneven rent payments. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases result in straight-line expense (similar to operating leases prior to adoption of ASU 2016-02) while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern (similar to capital leases prior to adoption of ASU 2016-02). Laureate adopted ASU 2016-02 as of January 1, 2019 under a modified retrospective method. The standard provided companies with an additional, optional transition method that allowed entities to prospectively apply the requirements by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. We elected this optional transition method. In accordance with Topic 842 we also elected the package of practical expedients, which permits us to not reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (3) any initial direct costs for any existing leases as of the effective date. We did not elect the hindsight practical expedient, which permits entities to use hindsight in determining the lease term and assessing impairment. We elected the practical expedient to combine our lease and related nonlease components for our building leases. Adopting ASU 2016-02 had a material impact on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as we recorded significant asset and liability balances in connection with our leased properties. The most significant impacts to our Consolidated Financial Statements of adopting this standard are as follows: • The recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases, which totaled $937,884 and $958,066 , respectively, as of June 30, 2019 ; • An increase in 2019 rent expense of approximately $13,000 for continuing operations primarily related to build-to-suit arrangements where Laureate was deemed to be the owner of the construction. Upon adoption of this standard, these arrangements were classified on the balance sheet as operating leases and the related ROU asset is being amortized to rent expense rather than depreciation expense; and • A cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption of $28,944 , which is primarily attributable to the reclassification into retained earnings of deferred gain liabilities related to sale-leaseback transactions that were classified as operating leases upon adoption. ASU No. 2017-12 (ASU 2017-12), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities On August 28, 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, which contains significant amendments to the hedge accounting model. The new guidance is intended to simplify the application of hedge accounting and should allow for more hedging strategies to qualify for hedge accounting. ASU 2017-12 also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how companies assess effectiveness. Public business entities like Laureate will have until the end of the first quarter in which a hedge is designated to perform an initial assessment of a hedge’s effectiveness. After initial qualification, the new guidance permits a qualitative effectiveness assessment for certain hedges instead of a quantitative test, such as a regression analysis, if the company can reasonably support an expectation of high effectiveness throughout the term of the hedge. An initial quantitative test to establish that the hedge relationship is highly effective is still required. We adopted this ASU on January 1, 2019 and the impact was not material. ASU No. 2018-15 (ASU 2018-15) Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, which addresses the accounting for implementation costs associated with a hosted service. The standard provides amendments to align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license). Laureate elected to early adopt ASU 2018-15 on January 1, 2019, and the impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements was not material. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition Laureate's revenues primarily consist of tuition and educational service revenues. We also generate other revenues from student fees, dormitory/residency fees and other education-related activities. These other revenues are less material to our overall financial results and have a tendency to trend with tuition revenues. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. These revenues are recognized net of scholarships and other discounts, refunds, waivers and the fair value of any guarantees made by Laureate related to student financing programs. Laureate's institutions have various billing and academic cycles. We determine revenue recognition through the five-step model prescribed by ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , as follows: • Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer; • Identification of the performance obligations in the contract; • Determination of the transaction price; • Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and • Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation. We assess collectibility on a portfolio basis prior to recording revenue. Generally, students cannot re-enroll for the next academic session without satisfactory resolution of any past-due amounts. If a student withdraws from an institution, Laureate's obligation to issue a refund depends on the refund policy at that institution and the timing of the student's withdrawal. Generally, our refund obligations are reduced over the course of the academic term. We record refunds as a reduction of deferred revenue as applicable. Contract Balances The timing of billings, cash collections and revenue recognition results in accounts receivable (contract assets) and deferred revenue and student deposits (contract liabilities) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We have various billing and academic cycles and recognize student receivables when an academic session begins, although students generally enroll in courses prior to the start of the academic session. Receivables are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that we will collect substantially all of the consideration to which we are entitled in exchange for the goods and services that will be transferred to the student. We receive advance payments or deposits from our students before revenue is recognized, which are recorded as contract liabilities in deferred revenue and student deposits. Payment terms vary by university with some universities requiring payment in advance of the academic session and other universities allowing students to pay in installments over the term of the academic session. |
Business and Geographic Segment Information | Business and Geographic Segment Information Laureate’s educational services are offered through six operating segments: Brazil, Mexico, Andean, Central America & U.S. Campuses, Rest of World and Online & Partnerships. Laureate determines its operating segments based on information utilized by the chief operating decision maker to allocate resources and assess performance. Our campus-based segments generate revenues by providing an education that emphasizes professional-oriented fields of study with undergraduate and graduate degrees in a wide range of disciplines. Our educational offerings are increasingly utilizing online and hybrid (a combination of online and in-classroom) courses and programs to deliver their curriculum. Many of our largest campus-based operations are in developing markets which are experiencing a growing demand for higher education based on favorable demographics and increasing secondary completion rates, driving increases in participation rates and resulting in continued growth in the number of higher education students. Traditional higher education students (defined as 18-24 year olds) have historically been served by public universities, which have limited capacity and are often underfunded, resulting in an inability to meet the growing student demand and employer requirements. This supply and demand imbalance has created a market opportunity for private sector participants. Most students finance their own education. However, there are some government-sponsored student financing programs which are discussed below. The campus-based segments include Brazil, Mexico, Andean, Central America & U.S. Campuses and Rest of World. Specifics related to each of these campus-based segments and our Online & Partnerships segment are discussed below . In Brazil, approximately 75% of post-secondary students are enrolled in private higher education institutions. While the federal government defines the national curricular guidelines, institutions are licensed to operate by city. Laureate owns 13 institutions in eight states throughout Brazil, with a particularly strong presence in the competitive São Paulo market. Many students finance their own education while others rely on the government-sponsored programs such as Prouni and FIES. As described in Note 4 , Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale , on April 16, 2019 , the Company entered into an agreement to divest UniNorte, a traditional higher education institution in Manaus, Brazil. Public universities in Mexico enroll approximately two thirds of students attending post-secondary education. However, many public institutions are faced with capacity constraints or the quality of the education is considered low. Laureate owns two institutions and is present throughout the country with a footprint of over 40 campuses. Each institution in Mexico has a national license. Students in our Mexican institutions typically finance their own education. The Andean segment includes institutions in Chile and Peru. In Chile, private universities enroll approximately 80% of post-secondary students. In Peru, the public sector plays a significant role, but private universities are increasingly providing the capacity to meet growing demand. In Chile, there are government-sponsored student financing programs. The Central America & U.S. Campuses segment includes institutions in Costa Rica, Honduras, Panama and the United States. Students in Central America typically finance their own education while students in the United States finance their education in a variety of ways, including U.S. Department of Education (DOE) Title IV programs. The entire Central America & U.S. Campuses segment is included in Discontinued Operations. The Rest of World segment includes an institution in the European country of Turkey, as well as institutions in the Middle East and Asia Pacific consisting of campus-based institutions with operations in Australia, Malaysia and New Zealand. Additionally, the Rest of World segment manages eight licensed institutions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and manages one additional institution in China through a joint venture arrangement. The institutions in Turkey and Malaysia are included in Discontinued Operations. The institutions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are managed under a contract that expires at the end of August 2019 and will not be renewed . The Online & Partnerships segment includes fully online institutions that offer professionally oriented degree programs in the United States through Walden University (Walden), a U.S.-based accredited institution, and through the University of Liverpool and the University of Roehampton in the United Kingdom. These online institutions primarily serve working adults with undergraduate and graduate degree program offerings. Students in the United States finance their education in a variety of ways, including Title IV programs. We no longer accept new enrollments at the University of Liverpool and the University of Roehampton . As discussed in Note 1 , Description of Business , and Note 4 , Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale , during the third quarter of 2018, a number of our subsidiaries met the requirements to be classified as discontinued operations, including the entire Central America & U.S. Campuses segment . As a result, the operations of the Central America & U.S. Campuses segment have been excluded from the segment information for all periods presented. In addition, the portion of the Rest of World reportable segment that is included in discontinued operations has also been excluded from the segment information for all periods presented. Intersegment transactions are accounted for in a similar manner as third-party transactions and are eliminated in consolidation. The Corporate amounts presented in the following tables include corporate charges that were not allocated to our reportable segments and adjustments to eliminate intersegment items. We evaluate segment performance based on Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP performance measure defined as Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes and equity in net income of affiliates, adding back the following items: Gain (loss) on sales of subsidiaries, net , Foreign currency exchange gain (loss), net , Other income, net , Gain on derivatives , Loss on debt extinguishment , Interest expense , Interest income , Depreciation and amortization expense, Loss on impairment of assets, Share-based compensation expense and expenses related to our Excellence-in-Process (EiP) initiative. EiP is an enterprise-wide initiative to optimize and standardize Laureate’s processes, creating vertical integration of procurement, information technology, finance, accounting and human resources. It included the establishment of regional shared services organizations (SSOs) around the world, as well as improvements to the Company's system of internal controls over financial reporting. The EiP initiative also includes other back- and mid-office areas, as well as certain student-facing activities, expenses associated with streamlining the organizational structure and certain non-recurring costs incurred in connection with the planned dispositions described in Note 4 , Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale , and the completed dispositions described in Note 5 , Dispositions . When we review Adjusted EBITDA on a segment basis, we exclude intercompany revenues and expenses related to network fees and royalties between our segments, which eliminate in consolidation. We use total assets as the measure of assets for reportable segments. |
Financing Receivables | Financing Receivables Laureate’s financing receivables consist primarily of trade receivables related to student tuition financing programs with an initial term in excess of one year. We have offered long-term financing through the execution of note receivable agreements with students at some of our institutions. Our disclosures include financing receivables that are classified in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as both current and long-term, reported in accordance with ASC 310, “Receivables.” |
Financing Receivable, Allowance for Credit Losses | Delinquency is the primary indicator of credit quality for our financing receivables. Receivable balances are considered delinquent when contractual payments on the loan become past due. Delinquent financing receivables are placed on non-accrual status for interest income. The accrual of interest is resumed when the financing receivable becomes contractually current and when collection of all remaining amounts due is reasonably assured. We record an Allowance for doubtful accounts to reduce our financing receivables to their net realizable value. The Allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the age of the receivables, the status of past-due amounts, historical collection trends, current economic conditions, and student enrollment status. Each of our institutions evaluates its balances for potential impairment. We consider impaired loans to be those that are past due one year or greater, and those that are modified as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR). |
Derivative Instruments | Derivative Instruments In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency values and interest rate changes. We may seek to control a portion of these risks through a risk management program that includes the use of derivative instruments. The interest and principal payments for Laureate’s senior long-term debt arrangements are to be paid primarily in USD. Our ability to make debt payments is subject to fluctuations in the value of the USD against foreign currencies, since a majority of our operating cash used to make these payments is generated by subsidiaries with functional currencies other than USD. As part of our overall risk management policies, Laureate has at times entered into foreign currency swap contracts and floating-to-fixed interest rate swap contracts. In addition, we occasionally enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the impact of other non-functional currency-denominated receivables and payables. We do not enter into speculative or leveraged transactions, nor do we hold or issue derivatives for trading purposes. Laureate reports all derivatives at fair value. These contracts are recognized as either assets or liabilities, depending upon the derivative’s fair value. Gains or losses associated with the change in the fair value of these swaps are recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Operations on a current basis over the term of the contracts, unless designated and effective as a hedge. For swaps that are designated and effective as cash flow hedges, gains or losses associated with the change in fair value of the swaps are recognized in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of AOCI and amortized into earnings as a component of Interest expense over the term of the related hedged items. Upon early termination of an effective interest rate swap designated as a cash flow hedge, unrealized gains or losses are deferred in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of AOCI and are amortized as an adjustment to Interest expense over the period during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. For derivatives that are both designated and effective as net investment hedges, gains or losses associated with the change in fair value of the derivatives are recognized on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of AOCI. |
Earnings (Loss) Per Share | Earnings (Loss) Per Share We have two classes of common stock, Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Other than voting rights, the Class B common stock has the same rights as the Class A common stock and therefore both are treated as the same class of stock for purposes of the earnings per share calculation. Laureate computes basic earnings per share (EPS) by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if share-based compensation awards, contingently issuable shares, or convertible securities were exercised or converted into common stock. To calculate the diluted EPS, the basic weighted average number of shares is increased by the dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and contingently issuable shares determined using the treasury stock method, and convertible securities using the if-converted method. |
Fair Value Measurement | Fair Value Measurement Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to settle a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting standards utilize a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels, which are described below: • Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; • Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability; • Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity. These levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk of liquidity associated with the financial assets or liabilities disclosed. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement, as required under ASC 820-10, ‘‘Fair Value Measurement.’’ Derivative instruments Laureate uses derivative instruments as economic hedges for bank debt, foreign exchange fluctuations and interest rate risk. Their values are derived using valuation models commonly used for derivatives. These valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, forward-price yield curves, notional quantities, measures of volatility and correlations of such inputs. Our valuation models also reflect measurements for credit risk. Laureate concluded that the fair values of our derivatives are based on unobservable inputs, or Level 3 assumptions. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Company's derivative instruments is our own credit risk. Holding other inputs constant, a significant increase (decrease) in our own credit risk would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement for the Company's derivative instruments. |
