While National Accreditation
is common for traditional U.S. institutions
of higher learning, utilizing standard teaching
methods, we note that every country has its
own standards and independent accrediting
organizations. Accreditation is a voluntary
process and does not guarantee a worthy education.
Rather, it means an institution has submitted
its courses, programs, budget, and educational
objectives for review. AIU's Distance Learning
Programs are unique, non-traditional and independent.
This may be a determining factor for those
individuals interested in pursuing certain
disciplines requiring State licensing, (such
as law, teaching, or medicine). It is recommended
that you consider the importance of National
Accreditation for your specific field or profession
and make your decision accordingly.
Although Atlantic International University's
individualized Distance Learning Degree Programs,
are distinct from traditional educational
institutions, we are convinced of their value
and acceptance worldwide. Non-traditional
programs are important because they recognize
knowledge gained outside the classroom and
incorporate a broader more comprehensive view
of the learning experience. It is precisely
this recognition and view that challenges
the established Academic Community. Many great
institutions are independent. We invite you
to compare our programs and philosophy with
traditional classroom-based programs to determine
which is best suited to your needs and budget.
ATLANTIC INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY IS NOT ACCREDITED BY AN ACCREDITING AGENCY RECOGNIZED BY THE UNITED STATES SECRETARY OF EDUCATION.
Note: In the United States, many licensing authorities require accredited degrees as the basis for eligibility for licensing. In some cases, accredited colleges may not accept for transfer courses and degrees completed at unaccredited colleges, and some employers may require an accredited degree as a basis for eligibility for employment.
Some employers participate in tuition reimbursement plans. The prospective student should contact their employer regarding tuition reimbursement plans, before submitting an application to AIU.
