Accreditation

Sampoerna University is accredited by the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia. The New England Commission of Higher Education has determined that Sampoerna University is eligible to proceed with an application for candidacy for accreditation within two years. A determination of eligibility is not candidacy or accreditation, nor does it indicate a likelihood of eventual accreditation. Questions about eligibility and the accreditation process should be directed to the President of the Commission.

SU's lower division (Freshman and Sophomore) curriculum is co-developed with Keiser University, which is fully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC). The first two years of study at Sampoerna University can lead to academic credit from Keiser University toward an associate degree and is transferable to four-year programs in the U.S. and many other countries.

At the upper division (years 3 and 4), Sampoerna University offers the opportunity to earn two degrees through its partnership with the University of Arizona. This collaboration allows students to complete both an Indonesian Sarjana 1 and a bachelor's degree from the University of Arizona without ever leaving Indonesia. The University of Arizona, a leading research institution in the U.S., is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, as well as the American Association of Colleges and Schools of Business (AACSB). Graduates of the two-degree programs available in Business and Engineering receive diplomas and transcripts from both institutions. In addition to that, Sampoerna University is legally acknowledged by the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia. For more information, please refer to the decree of Ministry of Education and Culture concerning our change of name and establishment.
