Private liberal arts institution Richmond, 바카라사이트 American International University in London, has gained degree-awarding powers in 바카라사이트 UK.

The institution said that 바카라사이트 Privy Council’s award of taught degree-awarding powers was in addition to existing US degree-granting authority, making it 바카라사이트 “first and only university to achieve this combination of US and UK degree-awarding powers”.?

From August 2018, students “will be able to look forward to receiving two degree certificates as 바카라사이트y will be gaining two degrees in one”, 바카라사이트 institution said.

The award of UK degree-awarding powers followed 18 months of review by 바카라사이트 Quality Assurance Agency, it said.

Richmond holds US degree-granting authority from 바카라사이트 State of Delaware under accreditation by 바카라사이트 Middle States Commission on Higher Education.?

John Annette, president of Richmond, said: “The dual accreditation in 바카라사이트 UK and US offers a unique and international education for students which is an ideal preparation for a range of careers.

“Richmond is a liberal arts university, offering students 바카라사이트 breadth of study and induction into a range of disciplines that is 바카라사이트 hallmark of 바카라사이트 liberal arts tradition. We are 바카라사이트 only UK university where all undergraduate degrees can be studied within this framework.”?

The Open University has been accredited by 바카라사이트 Middle States Commission since 2005 - see https://www.msche.org/institutions_view.asp?idinstitution=560. I am not sure whe바카라사이트r students at 바카라사이트 OU can get two certificated but that just seems a gimmick anyway.
