School Description

Provided by Alliant International University- San Diego

Alliant International University's Scripps Ranch Campus in San Diego reflects the area itself - the campuses welcome about one-third of their students from countries other than the US. The faculty and staff are similarly diverse. Small class sizes, close student-faculty interaction, active student organizations and residence life are some of the defining characteristics of the Scripps campus.

The University aims to prepare students for professional careers of service and leadership, and promotes the discovery and application of knowledge to improve the lives of people in diverse cultures and communities around the world.

History

Alliant International University is an independent, not-for-profit, university formed in July 2001 as a result of a merger between California School of Professional Psychology (CSPP) and United States International University (USIU). In the US, the Alliant is accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges and Universities of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC). Alliant is also US-accredited to award degrees in Mexico.

In 2005, The Department of Athletics announced a planned two year phase out of the intercollegiate sports program at Alliant International University's San Diego campus due to the high price of funding the program. The Men's and Women's Soccer, Cross Country, Track and Field, Tennis, and Women's Volleyball Teams concluded operations and competition after the 2006-2007 academic year.
