AIU has been recognized by U.S. News & World Report for one of the Best Online Bachelor’s Programs for Veterans in 2017. The honor recognizes universities for providing active-duty troops and veterans with access to distance education that is affordable, accessible and reputable.

AIU was named one of the country’s Military Friendly® Schools for its ongoing commitment to providing military students and their families the opportunities and support they need to achieve their educational goals. The recognition comes from Victory Media, originator of the Military Friendly® group of education and career resources for veterans and their families, and the ratings and resources are designed to provide servicemembers transparent and accurate information to help them make decisions about their educational opportunities.

American InterContinental University is proud to announce that it has been named “a TOP SCHOOL” in the Military Advanced Education 2017 Guide to Colleges and Universities. The accolade recognizes the university for its dedication to making higher education accessible to military members, veterans and their families in four key areas: military culture, support services (including online support), financial services and flexibility.

AIU’s Virtual Classroom earned a Gold Medal at the IMS Global 2016 Learning Impacts Awards, which honor the most powerful and influential uses of technology worldwide in support of student learning. The program seeks to identify repeatable implementation of “efficient IT” practices that can help institutions and educational authorities increase access, create personalized learning environments, improve student engagement and improve actionable assessment.

ELearning! Magazine awarded AIU a 2015 Best of Elearning! Award for intellipath, the university’s proprietary adaptive learning platform. Recognized in the Best Adaptive Learning Content category, intellipath customizes the learning experience for individual students’ needs, allowing them to skip over what they already know and focus on what they still need to learn.

Aimed at expanding distance education opportunities for students nationwide, NC-SARA is an agreement among member states, districts and territories that establishes comparable national standards for interstate postsecondary distance education courses and programs.
