On 2 June 2017 Henning Jensen, rector of the University of Costa Rica, announced the cease of the agreement between the university and the club, citing that the transfer of the administrative management of the team to the Colombian company Con Talla Mundial was neither requested nor advised to the university. Jensen also stated that the club did not comply with the correction in the financial part of the club.

Throughout its history, the University of Costa Rica Soccer Club used various scenarios, especially because the University of Costa Rica did not have its own stadium until the construction of the Ecological Stadium, a venue located within the university sports facilities, located in the canton of Montes de Oca. The Ecológico was the club's own headquarters since its opening in 2008, and there it starred in various matches in both the first and second divisions. However, and especially since the club returned to the first division in 2013, the small capacity of the Ecological Stadium (1,800 fans) motivated the team to look for other venues for economic reasons. Among the stadiums that were once the official headquarters of the University of Costa Rica Soccer Club are the Alejandro Morera Soto Stadium, the Ricardo Saprissa Stadium, the Eladio Rosabal Cordero Stadium and the Jorge Hernán "Cuty" Monge Stadium, among others.
