School Description

Provided by Hodges University-Naples

Founded in 1990 as International College, Hodges University has established itself as one of the premier private universities in the State of Florida. The name was changed to Hodges University in May, 2007 to honor a generous gift by Earl and Thelma Hodges, long-time residents of Naples and avid supporters of the institution.

Hodges University is Regionally accredited with the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools to award Associate, Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees.

The mission of Hodges University is to offer Associate, Baccalaureate and Graduate degrees as well as other programs which enhance the ability of students to achieve life or career objectives.

The growth of this institution over the last few years shows that we are on the move, changing the economic and social landscape of our area. In 2008, we graduated our largest class ever, bringing our total graduate numbers to over 5,000 students. Our enrollment growth has been steadily increasing, recently eclipsing the 2,000-student level for the first time in our history. Local employers continue to prize Hodges graduates.

We take our place in the community very seriously. Besides contributing skilled and well-qualified employees to the growing local workforce, we are constantly identifying ways that our institution can help the very fabric of our area. Recently, with the help of several local leaders, Hodges University formed the area’s first-ever Hispanic Institute, formed as a resource for Lee and Collier County which will study and address issues affecting the Hispanic community.
