History
TUI University (formerly Touro University International), was established as a branch campus of Touro College, New York on July 1, 1998, by its current President and CEO, Dr. Yoram Neumann.
From the outset, TUI was organized and structured to be largely autonomous from the parent institution. TUI was initially accredited as a branch campus of Touro College by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. Touro College was subsequently re-accredited by Middle States in 2004 which included the TUI branch campus. Because of TUI's location in California, its robust growth, fiscal and operational stability and unique online academic model, TUI was granted a separate original regional accreditation by Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) in February 2005. TUI University is also accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges.
In October 2007, a new governing board was installed and the university name was changed to TUI University (TUI). Under the present governorship, the TUI management team leads the administration of the institution while the faculty and staff retain a central role in maintaining the quality and academic vitality of TUI's learning model.
TUI University is an equal-opportunity international educator and offers Federal Student Aid to US students.
