Explanatory Note:

This Amendment No. 7 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 7”) amends the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed by Point72 Asset Management, L.P., Point72 Capital Advisors, Inc. and Steven A. Cohen (the “Initial Reporting Persons”) on February 16, 2017, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed by the Initial Reporting Persons on January 5, 2018, Amendment No. 2 filed by the Initial Reporting Persons and Cohen Private Ventures, LLC (“Cohen Private Ventures”) on April 25, 2018, Amendment No. 3 filed by Steven A. Cohen and Cohen Private Ventures on November 21, 2018, Amendment No. 4 filed by CPV Partners, LLC (“CPV Partners”), Steven A. Cohen and Cohen Private Ventures on January 4, 2019, Amendment No. 5 filed by Steven A. Cohen and CPV Partners on June 19, 2019, and Amendment No. 6 filed by Steven A. Cohen and CPV Partners on April 2, 2021 (the initial statement on Schedule 13D, as amended, the “Statement” or the “Schedule 13D”).  This Amendment No. 7 is being filed by Steven A. Cohen and CPV Partners (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”), as further described herein, in respect of the common stock, par value $0.004 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Laureate Education, Inc., a Delaware public benefit corporation (the “Issuer”).  Each Item below amends and supplements the information disclosed under the corresponding Item of the Statement.  Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 7 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D.  Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following:

On October 28, 2021, certain investors in Wengen Alberta, Limited Partnership (“Wengen”) other than the Reporting Persons elected to have their interests in Wengen redeemed in exchange for delivery by Wengen to such investors of the number of shares of Issuer common stock corresponding to the Wengen interests so redeemed (the “Redemption”).  Following the Redemption and cancellation of Wengen interests held by certain investors in Wengen affiliated with Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (“KKR”), KKR and its affiliated entities no longer hold limited partnership interests in Wengen and KKR’s representative on the board of directors of Wengen Investments Limited, the general partner of Wengen (“Wengen GP”) is expected to resign.

Because the Class B common stock, par value $0.004 per share (the “Class B Common Stock”) outstanding after giving effect to the Redemption represented less than 15% of the total outstanding Class A common stock, par value $0.004 per share (“Class A Common Stock”) and Class B Common Stock, pursuant to the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation each share of Class A Common Stock and each share of Class B Common Stock automatically converted into one share of the Issuer’s common stock (the “Common Stock”), effective October 29, 2021. Following the conversion, the Issuer has only one class of Common Stock outstanding, and the Issuer no longer qualifies for the “controlled company” exemption under the Nasdaq rules.

In connection with the Redemption, Wengen, Wengen Investments Limited, the general partner of Wengen (“Wengen GP”), and the Issuer on October 28, 2021 entered into an Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment No. 1”) to the Amended and Restated Securityholders Agreement dated as of February 6, 2017 (the “Wengen Securityholders Agreement”), as further described in Item 6 below, which amendment was approved by the Wengen Investors in accordance with the Wengen Securityholders Agreement.  As a result of the rights and obligations contained in the Amendment No. 1, the Reporting Persons may be deemed a “group” with certain of the other parties thereto who are subject to the voting obligations contained therein, as further described in Item 6.  Wengen, the other Wengen Investors and certain of their affiliates separately report their beneficial ownership of Common Stock on separate Schedule 13D filings.

Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Items 5(a), (b) and (c) of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated as follows:

The information set forth in the cover pages of this Amendment No. 7, and in Item 4 hereto, are hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.

a) and b) CPV Partners may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 24,070,640 shares of Class A Common Stock, which represents, in the aggregate, approximately 13.3% of the outstanding shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, calculated pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, as a result of (i) CPV Partners’ indirect beneficial ownership of 20,855,584 shares of Common Stock owned by Wengen, (ii) 15,864 shares of Class A Common Stock owned by an entity controlled by CPV Partners and of which it may be deemed to share beneficial ownership, and (iii) 3,199,192 shares of Class A Common Stock held by an entity controlled by CPV Partners, and of which it may be deemed to share beneficial ownership.  Based on his control of CPV Partners, Steven A. Cohen may be deemed to share beneficial ownership over the shares of Class A Common Stock of which CPV Partners may share beneficial ownership.

The aggregate beneficial ownership percentages reported in this Statement were calculated pursuant to Rule 13d-3 and are based on 181,336,728 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 30, 2021, as reflected in the Form 10-Q filed by the Issuer on November 4, 2021, which indicates that, as of September 30, 2021, a total of 114,983,272 shares of Class A Common Stock and 66,353,456 shares of Class B Common Stock were then outstanding.

The aggregate number of shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons as reported herein does not include any shares of Common Stock which may be received by holders of Common Stock subject to proxies given by current and former directors and employees to Wengen to vote their shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Management Stockholders Agreements as described elsewhere in this Statement.

The Reporting Persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities held directly by the Wengen Investors and Wengen, in each case, as described more fully in this Statement.

The filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission that any of the above-listed entities or individuals is the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Statement.

c) Except as set forth in this Statement, none of the Reporting Persons has engaged in any transaction in any shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, Class A Common Stock, or Class B Common Stock, during the past 60 days.

Item 6.Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Board Designation Rights

On October 28, 2021, the Issuer entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Wengen Securityholders Agreement.

Amendment No. 1 provides, among other matters, that for so long as either Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (together with its affiliates, “KKR”) or CPV Partners (together with its affiliates, “CPV”) holds at least 8,035,713 shares of Issuer Common Stock, KKR and CPV collectively (or one of them if the other has lost its director designation right under the Wengen Securityholders Agreement) will have the right to nominate one additional director (the “Third Director”) who will initially be Ian K. Snow, and who may be removed or replaced at any time without cause by KKR and CPV (or one of them if the other has lost its existing director designation right under the Wengen Securityholders Agreement).

In the event that KKR and CPV each ceases to be the beneficial owner of at least 8,035,713 shares of Issuer Common Stock, then the Third Director must offer his resignation as a director to the Company’s Board of Directors, and KKR and CPV thereafter will no longer be entitled to designate a Third Director.  In addition, irrespective of their actual holdings, the right to designate a Third Director, as well as the existing Issuer director designation rights of KKR, CPV and Sterling Capital Partners II, L.P., Sterling Capital Partners III, L.P., SP L Affiliate, LLC, Douglas L. Becker, Steven M. Taslitz and their respective affiliates under the Wengen Securityholders Agreement, will expire on December 31, 2024.

In addition, the Amendment specifies that the Wengen GP must cause all of the Issuer’s shares held by Wengen to be voted, and that all current and former Wengen investors who have an employee or representative serving on the Wengen GP’s or the Issuer’s Board of Directors must vote their shares of the Issuer, in favor of the director nominees designated by KKR and CPV under the Wengen Securityholders Agreement.

Also, in the Amendment No. 1, Wengen and the Wengen Investors agree that, as between them and the Issuer, Wengen and such investors will be responsible for the payment of any taxes and any related fees, costs and expenses attributable to a direct or indirect transfer of Issuer Common Stock and that Wengen and the Wengen investors will, at the time of any such transfer, pay to, or as directed by, the Issuer or Wengen (and the Issuer and Wengen have the right to withhold from any amounts distributable to Wengen or the Wengen investors) the amount of any taxes payable in Peru with respect to such transfer and any related costs, fees and expenses incurred by the Issuer, any of the Issuer’s subsidiaries or Wengen. Wengen will pay any amounts it so receives from the Wengen investors to the Issuer, and the Issuer will use any amounts it so receives from Wengen and the Wengen investors (and any amounts so withheld) to pay any taxes payable in Peru and its related costs, fees and expenses.

Item 7.   Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

Item 7 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following exhibit:

Exhibit 99.2 Amendment No. 1 to the Amended and Restated Securityholders Agreement dated as of February 6, 2017, among the Issuer, Wengen, Wengen GP and its investors party thereto, dated as of October 28, 2021.

(i)         as between such Covered Person and Laureate, such Covered Person is, and shall at all times remain, responsible and liable for the payment of any taxes and any related fees, costs and expenses (including any fees and disbursements of legal counsel) resulting from or attributable to such Covered Transfer;

(ii)         neither Laureate nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have any responsibility or liability with respect to any such taxes or such related fees, costs and expenses; and

(iii)        such Covered Person will, at the time of any Covered Transfer, (A) pay to, or as directed by, the Company or Laureate the amount of any Peru Taxes with respect to such Covered Transfer and (B) reimburse the Company or Laureate, as applicable, for its pro rata portion of any related costs, fees and expenses (including the reasonable fees and

3

disbursements of legal counsel) incurred by the Company, Laureate or any of Laureate’s Subsidiaries.

The Company shall pay any amounts received from Investors and Securityholders pursuant to this Section 6.20 to Laureate promptly upon receipt thereof.  For purposes of this Amendment, (i) “Covered Person” means the Company and each Investor and Securityholder, (ii) “Peru Taxes” shall mean any Peruvian taxes resulting from or attributable a Covered Transfer, (iii) “Peru Tax Certificate” shall mean any certificate issued by SUNAT to establish the tax basis for Peruvian tax purposes of Common Stock or any interest in an entity that holds, directly or indirectly, Common Stock and (iv) “SUNAT” shall mean the Superintendencia Nacional de Aduanas y de Administración Tributaria or any other Governmental Authority that is responsible for taxation in Peru.

(c)        Laureate shall use any amounts received from the Covered Persons pursuant to Section 6.20(a), and any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 6.20(b), to pay such Peru Taxes and its related costs, fees and expenses.  To the extent any amounts received from the Covered Persons pursuant to Section 6.20(a), and any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 6.20(b), exceed the amounts required to pay such Peru Taxes and the related costs, fees and expenses incurred by the Company, Laureate or any of Laureate’s Subsidiaries, such excess shall be returned to the Covered Persons.

(d)         Each Covered Person shall give Laureate prior written notice of any Transfer of Securities by, on behalf of or for the benefit of such Covered Person, which notice shall include a copy of the applicable Peru Tax Certificate then in effect.  No Covered Person shall be permitted to Transfer any Securities, unless such Covered Person pays to, or as directed by, the Company or Laureate (or the Company or Laureate withholds) the amount of any Peru Taxes as a result of such Transfer and such Covered Person’s pro rata portion of any related costs, fees and expenses incurred by Laureate.  Laureate shall notify each Covered Person in writing of the amount of Peru Taxes payable as a result of such proposed Transfer and the amount of such Covered Person’s pro rata portion of related costs, fees and expenses incurred by Laureate.

(e)          In the case of any Peru Tax Certificate obtained by Laureate with respect to any Common Stock or other interests, each Covered Person shall reimburse Laureate for such Covered Person’s pro rata portion of all fees, costs

4

and expenses incurred or paid by Laureate or its Subsidiaries to obtain such certificate.

l.          Article VI of the Securityholders Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following as a new Section 6.21 therein:

6.21          Company & General Partner Expenses.  Each Investor and Securityholder hereby authorizes the Company and the General Partner to withhold from any amount distributable or deliverable (whether in a distribution, redemption or otherwise) by the Company or the General Partner to such Investor or Securityholder such Investor’s or Securityholder’s pro rata share of any taxes, fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Company or the General Partner (including, without limitation, the taxes, fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Company or the General Partner in connection with the dissolution of the Company’s subsidiaries) prior to the time such Investor or Securityholder no longer holds any Interests.

4.         General Provisions. All other terms and provisions of the Securityholders Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and no other modifications to the Securityholders Agreement have been made pursuant to this Amendment except as provided herein.  All references to the Securityholders Agreement in the Securityholders Agreement or any other document, instrument, agreement or writing delivered pursuant thereto shall hereafter be deemed to refer to the Securityholders Agreement as amended by this Amendment.  In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the terms of the Securityholders Agreement, the terms of this Amendment shall control.

5.         Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same amendment) and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered (by electronic communication, facsimile or otherwise) to the other Parties.

6.         Governing Law; Jurisdiction.  The provisions of Section 6.9 of the Securityholders Agreement shall apply to this Amendment mutatis mutandis as if set forth herein.
