From Hollywood dreams to Silicon Valley start-ups, California is one of the most beautiful places to live, an attractive location for international students and the golden state for opening an online university, a new college or a vocational school in the United States.

Expert Education Consultants can help you start an online university in California in record time.

Why California? 

  • It's one of the very few states where you can use "college" or "university" in the name from DAY ONE!
  • If you are a non-US resident, you can easily start a corporation in California and get an address in the state without even having to set foot. 
  • It allows non-accredited universities to get a license to operate for five years until they get accreditation. 
  • There are also numerous grounds for exemption from state supervision, including religious exemptions, institutions offering non-degree programs with tuition fees of $2500 or less, and many others.
  • California is considered one of the wealthiest states in the US, which means you can enroll students who can afford to pay for higher education.

Although it is not the easiest or fastest state, it is the best state for opening an online university! 

After all, it's California!
