We are very pleased to share with all our stakeholders that Eton University is now officially under accreditation process through a quality assurance organisation ACQUIN, and it is expected to receive its accreditation approval approximately within a year.
Although we have always strived to provide the best quality education to our students by committing ourselves to high standards, we have also decided that the time has come for us to provide our students, alumni and partners with an official proof of excellence. Being officially recognized by a reputable external organisation is particularly important for Eton University, as we offer education to students worldwide, and we want, as much as possible, to ensure the acceptance of our degree across the globe.
