With over 61,000 currently enrolled students, the University of Phoenix is America's largest private accredited university for working adults.  We have provided Degree Programs and Certificate Programs to more than 485,000 working professionals in the United States, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, British Columbia, and dozens of foreign countries.

Accredited in 1978, the University of Phoenix was among the first to recognize the need for degree and continuing education programs for adult professionals. In nearly two decades of developing and implementing targeted Academic Programs, we have achieved an enviable ability to understand and meet the specialized demands of the working student. Today, we offer a multitude of programs at learning center locations in fourteen states, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Vancouver British Columbia and via Distance Education.

The cornerstone of our educational philosophy is the recognition of the distinction between the younger student still deciding on a career and the adult student who has established personal and professional goals. We know that education for working adults must harmonize with full personal and professional lives. And we have developed programs that allow mature students to benefit from the integration of work and school. Our Faculty is comprised of working practitioners, experts in their field.

University of Phoenix
offers graduate and undergraduate degree programs and certificate programs to working professionals around the world. With 81 campuses and learning centers located throughout the U.S., the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Vancouver British Columbia, and including the Online Degree Programs, University of Phoenix is the nation's largest private accredited institution for business and management.

Scheduled for Working Professionals

We have made accommodations to the daily demands of a working adult's schedule with absolutely no compromise of our educational integrity. Courses are made available at suitable times and places, generally meeting after hours at locations in or near the workplace. Students take one course each five to eight week period because research shows that adults learn best in an atmosphere of concentrated immersion. The program runs through the calendar year, allowing students to start at their convenience.

Students register and pay tuition at the first class of each course, and course materials, including texts and readings, can be delivered in advance. All students are provided library services through the Learning Resource Center.
