Opening the Gates of Higher Education for All!

By Tali Gourarie | Communications and Marketing Director

University of the People is proud to announce our recent accreditation by a US accreditor, the DETC. This accreditation enables us to further open the gates of education, making tuition-free, online, academic degrees available for all qualified individuals.

Your continued support in our mission is integral to our success – together we can democratize education and ensure that higher education truly is a right for all, and not a privilege for a few.

Our numbers have increased: to date, UoPeople has admitted over 1700 students from 142 countries to its degree programs in Computer Science and in Business Administration. UoPeople has arranged numerous scholarship funds, all designed to meet the unique needs of its diverse student body.

There are many more students who are still denied access to higher education. Tuition rates are skyrocketing worldwide. UNESCO stipulates by 2025, 98 million individuals will be unable to attend university because there won't be enough places at existing universities. University of the People provides the tuition-free, accredited, online solution.

Without the support of generous donors such as yourself this would not have been possible – thank you for your continued support of our mission to ensure that no qualified individual is denied access to education.
