History

{{One source|section|date=October 2010}}

IAU started operations in 2005 in Los Angeles as the Management Institute of America. It currently operates from facilities in Palmdale, California and Los Angeles, California.[1] According to its newsletter, the university[1] received its initial approval for the name change on July 6, 2006 and conducted its first graduation ceremony in Malaysia on April 1, 2007. This was only 8 months after its temporary approval. During its commencement ceremony, 85 students received their degrees.

March 2009: IAU received its approval by the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to accept and enroll foreign, non-immigrant F-1 students for academic degrees.

January 2008: IAU relocated its administrative office from Los Angeles to Palmdale, CA. IAU establishes CAS Academy, a department under the School of Business and Technology.

September 2006: Management Institute of America, Inc. legally changed its name to the International American University.

July 2006: Management Institute of America, Inc sought California State approval to legally change its name to the International American University (IAU) in 2006.

August 2005: Management Institute of America, Inc. is incorporated in the State of California as a private proprietary corporation, duly formed and organized under the laws and regulations of the Secretary of State for the State of California.

Accreditation status

International American University's website states that it is legally operating in California as an educational institution authorized to grant all degrees and/or offer credentials as indicated on its website / catalog. According to the University, it has a governing board with legal and fiduciary responsibility to exercise appropriate oversight over institutional integrity, policies, resource development, and ongoing operations. The University was approved on March 6, 2009 by the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to accept and enroll foreign, non-immigrant F-1 students for academic degrees.[1]

International American University is not accredited[1] by any higher education accreditation organization recognized by the United States Department of Education or the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA). The use of unaccredited degree titles is legally restricted or illegal in some jurisdictions.[5] Jurisdictions that have restricted or made illegal the use of credentials from unaccredited schools include Oregon,[6][12] Michigan, Maine,[7] North Dakota,[8] New Jersey,[8] Washington,[6][9] Nevada,[6] Illinois,[6] Indiana[6] and Texas.[10] Many other states are also considering restrictions on unaccredited degree use in order to help prevent fraud.[11]
