GGU Worldwide
A Global Education from the Heart of San Francisco
GGU Worldwide meets the needs of students for the next century by making higher education affordable, accessible, and in multiple languages to students worldwide. Golden Gate University is an accredited nonprofit institution founded in 1901, located in the heart of San Francisco’s financial and high-tech district and near Silicon Valley’s global epicenter for innovation.
GGU Worldwide builds on Golden Gate’s three decades of experience offering high-quality, practice-based online education. GGU Worldwide’s high-quality, practice-based degree programs are delivered by experienced practitioners, influencers, and thought leaders.
Aligned to the City of San Francisco and the State of California’s language access policies, GGU Worldwide’s English Language Proficiency Admission Requirement is one of the most welcoming to native English speakers, countries where English is an official language, bilingual learners, and those who studied in English language schools. In the countries where GGU Worldwide operates, we believe GGU education should be accessible in the local language, taught by our global faculty.
