AIU London Overview

Founded in 1970, American InterContinental University offers a wide range of Associate, Bachelor's and Master's degree programs.

American InterContinental University has been preparing students for the rigors of the real world with practical, career-focused learning for over 35 years. AIU London goes even further by giving students an international education that can set them up for success anywhere in the world—whether in their home town or farther afield.

AIU London is located in central London, between Hyde Park and Regents Park, inviting students to experience rich British traditions as they have an opportunity to expand their educational horizons. While numerous American colleges have campuses in London and elsewhere in the European Union, AIU London prides itself on being an international university, not merely an American university that happens to be located overseas. Ninety-five percent of AIU London's student body is international, with students coming from over 80 countries to pursue their degrees. AIU London's enrollment is around 1,000 students, about 40 percent of which are study abroad students from affiliated American colleges and universities.

AIU London offers five different start dates throughout the year: October, January, March and July. Each start date coincides with the start of a new 10-week term. Students who wish to earn their degrees in as little time as possible usually take classes during all four terms; other students often take the summer term off.

We offer a 5 week summer session in June.

Each term, AIU London professors challenge their students with hands-on classes, career training and real-life examples. Class size is limited to ensure students get focused attention, and curricula take advantage of AIU's London location by bringing in guest lecturers, staging field trips, and offering internships not usually available elsewhere as part of the degree programs.
