Adler University is a private institution specializing in psychology and related fields. Founded in 1952, it operates campuses in Chicago, Vancouver, and online. As a private university, it relies on tuition, donations, and endowments rather than government funding.
The university focuses on social justice and community engagement, offering graduate programs in psychology, counseling, and public policy. Private status allows Adler to maintain a specialized curriculum and smaller class sizes.
