Northcentral University
Northcentral University was founded in 1996 to provide working professionals around the world with
unprecedented access to richly engaging, professionallyrelevant, and academically-rigorous education
from a U.S. university. As a regionally accredited, private, online and graduate-focused university,
NCU offers doctoral, master's and bachelor's degrees in business, technology management, education,
and psychology, as well as doctoral and master's degrees in marriage and family therapy. NCU utilizes
a one-to-one learning model—one student is paired with a professor in each course—to create a more
personalized, individual experience for students enhanced by their professors' real-world experience.
NCU professors all hold doctoral degrees, and none of our programs have residency requirements,
allowing access to students no matter where they live.
Additionally, with the exception of the Department of Marriage and Family Sciences within the School
of Social and Behavioral Sciences, all of NCU's programs are delivered 100% online.
Northcentral University is regionally accredited by the WASC Senior College and University Commission
