Schiller International University is a private, for-profit American university with eight campuses in six countries. They are located in London, England; Paris and Strasbourg, France; Madrid, Spain; Heidelberg, Germany; Leysin and Engelberg, Switzerland; and Largo, Florida. SIU offers Associate's, Bachelor's and Master's degrees in a number of areas.
Founded in 1964 by Dr. Walter Leibrecht as a study abroad program for Americans in Germany, it now provides undergraduate and graduate education to students from over 100 countries. Most Schiller campuses are in or near major cities offering abundant cultural opportunities in which students are actively encouraged to participate. The University is unique in that it gives students the opportunity to transfer from one campus to another, from one country to another, remaining in the same university without loss of time or credit.
Accreditation

The University is not regionally accredited.
