About Phonix University

Online university designed for working adults

University of Phoenix

Founded in 1976, University of Phoenix became one of the first online universities designed for working adults. We offer a powerful combination of career guidance, personal support and flexible learning opportunities — all with options to help save time and money on your degree. Here, the best time for class is when it fits your schedule, so you can balance it all — work, family and school — by focusing on just one 5-to-6-week course at a time. We are accredited by the Higher Learning Commission (hlcommission.org opens in new window), which validates the University and the quality of our academic programs.

Because we know your life doesn’t stop when the sun goes down, we offer personal support and resources by phone, chat or email to encourage your success as a student and beyond. And with so many ways of staying connected to an inspired community of students just like you — who understand what it takes to keep going and can motivate you along the way — you’re never alone.
