South University is a private, for-profit institution of higher education. It was founded in 1899 and operates multiple campuses across the United States, as well as online programs. Unlike public universities, which receive government funding, private universities like South University rely primarily on tuition and private investments.
The university offers a range of undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs in fields such as healthcare, business, and criminal justice. As a private institution, it has greater flexibility in curriculum design and admissions policies compared to public universities, which must adhere to state regulations.
