List of for-profit universities and colleges

March 06, 2024

This is a list of for-profit institutions of higher education.

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by adding missing items with reliable sources.

In the United States edit

Distance education (online) edit

Outside the United States edit

In India many educational trusts and institutions which have no accreditation give autonomous degrees for profit.

In Chile many universities are suspected of violating legislation that forbids profitmaking in such institutions.[5][6][7]

Closed or merged edit

For-profit colleges that became non-profit colleges edit

Conversions from for-profit to nonprofit are legitimate when the assets and income are fully committed to the educational purpose, and control by private interests is eliminated. Some converted nonprofits may not be legitimate.[12] A Government Accountability Office report about the problem is anticipated.[13]
