Guatemala currently has three Miss Universe placements. Representing the Central American country in the international beauty pageant, María del Rosario Molina Chacón finished in the Top 15 in 1955 and both Ilma Juieta Urrutia Chang and Jessica Maria Scheel Noyola finished in the Top 10 in 1984 and 2010, respectively.
