Welcome to East-West University!
Unique strength within diversity. At East-West University, unique sense of identity prevails. Strength of the university comes from its concerned and caring faculty and staff. Within the environment of East-West is a sense of community. Finally, diversity is the real strength of East-West University.

Since it was founded in 1980, East-West has made affordability, quality instruction, small class size and convenient location the hallmarks of its reputation. A comprehensive financial aid package is available, including institutional scholarships to most students. The annual tuition and fees are among the lowest of any private university in the Midwest.

Located in Chicago’s bustling South Loop area and easily accessible by public transportation, East-West offers bachelor's degrees in such fields as business administration, computer and information science, electronics technology and the liberal arts. In addition, one- and two-year certificates are offered in various areas.

The University has also won acclaim for its electroneurodiagnostic technology (ENDT) program, which trains students to become multi-skilled professional allied health technologists. The success of ENDT has enabled East-West to establish affiliation agreements with such prestigious hospitals as Loyola University Medical Center, Evanston Hospital and the University of Chicago Hospital. It has helped fuel the growth of the campus, which has nearly tripled in enrollment since 1990.

For a relatively small institution, East-West boasts a sizable number of international students. Contributing to the diversity has been an infusion of native speakers of Arabic, Bulgarian, Chinese, Hindi, Korean, Mongolian, Polish, Russian, Serbo-Croatian, Singhalese, Spanish, Thai and Urdu.

To better accommodate its students, faculty and staff, the University has recently implemented a state-of-the-art computer technology system and multi-media center.
