Lynn University

Overview
Lynn University is a small, coeducational liberal arts college with a decidedly international focus. Founded in Boca Raton, Florida in 1962, the college grants undergraduate and graduate degrees from schools of aeronautics, business & management, international communication, liberal education, music, education, and hospitality management. Lynn's small student body boasts students from 78 countries, and it has been ranked as the #1 international master's-granting institution in the south, by U.S. News & World Report. Lynn currently offers several undergraduate and graduate degrees online, with the majority focusing in business areas.

Student Appeal
Student-centered education isn't just a hollow promise at Lynn University; the college has purposefully capped enrollment to maintain a small student body, even among continuing education programs. The school is also a good bet for students who don't want to sacrifice liberal arts or professionally-oriented education, as Lynn strives to incorporate both aspects in its degrees.

Accreditation
Lynn University is accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
