Accreditation

AUOL Accreditation

AUOL is an independent international university exclusively involved in Online and Distance Learning education (in other words an "open" university ). We are not a British University (nor are we in any way associated with the University of London) and we do not award British qualifications.

Since its founding in 1984, "AUOL is fast becoming an acknowledged leader in Distance Education" *

Due to the excellent calibre of education we offer, degrees conferred by the American University of London have been internationally recognized by the private sector and accepted by multinational businesses as well as by colleges and universities for further study.

AUOL has sought and obtained accreditation from independent agencies specializing primarily in distance learning such as the World Association of Universities and Colleges (WAUC) of the USA and a number of others. AUOL is oriented to those individuals not seeking licenses or credentials required from governmental accrediting institutions. AUOL has not applied for accreditation with any American regional association nor with similar British official agencies.

As applying for accreditation is voluntary, candidates for whom governmental/official accreditation is important, need to enquire before enrolling as to the accreditation "status" of a specific programme or school.
