University of Guam (UOG)

The University of Guam is a U.S. accredited, regional Land-Grant institution. It is dedicated to the search for and dissemination of knowledge, wisdom and truth. The University exists to service its learners and the communities of Guam, Micronesia and the neighboring regions of the Pacific and Asia. The University prepares learners for life by providing the opportunity to acquire knowledge, skills, attitudes, and abilities through the core curriculum, degree programs, research and outreach. At the Pacific crosscurrents of the East and West, the University of Guam provides a unique opportunity to acquire indigenous and global knowledge.

The University of Guam offers degree programs within two colleges and three schools. Six Baccalaureate (BA, BA Ed., BBA, BS, BSN, and BSW) and five Master’s (MA, MBA, M Ed., MPA, MS) degrees are offered.

Several of our professional programs have obtained program specific accreditation from nationally recognized accrediting organizations including:

*
The National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission
*
The Council on Social Work Education
*
The International Assembly for Collegiate Business Education
*
National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education
*
The National Association for Sport and Physical Education.

Program specific accreditation means the University of Guam’s programs meet or exceed U.S. standards for professional programs in nursing, social work, business and education.

Our students have told us they like the familiar environment, the connection to family and friends, and the small class sizes at the University of Guam. Our students appreciate the fact that their professors know them by name, and care about their educational goals.

Some students followed their older siblings to UOG, others realized that there are many opportunities available at a small university that may not be accessible at a large one. Some students grew up in the mainland and decided to enroll at UOG so they could experience their cultural roots, while other students found UOG to be the most affordable choice for a college education.
