Is European-American University accredited by a government-recognized organization?
Yes. All degree programs of the University are reviewed and validated by the Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica (UNEM). The Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica has been accredited by the Consejo Nacional de EnseƱanza Superior Universitaria Privada (CONESUP) of the Ministry of Education, Costa Rica, since 5 November 1997, and is listed in the International Association of Universities International Handbook of Universities. Graduates of an EAU program can go on to obtain a dual degree award from UNEM without further academic requirements, on payment of a validation fee. The University is licensed to operate in the Republic of Ghana, where it is incorporated as European-American University College, Ltd., and at the time of writing has completed the accreditation process there, pending the final decision of the Ghana University Accreditation Board. We expect to welcome the first students to our campus there in January 2011.
