A Century of Academic Excellence.
South University enjoys a long-standing tradition of excellence in education and personalized student attention. South University traces its heritage to 1899, when Dr. John Draughon established Draughon's Practical Business College in Savannah, Ga.
Designed for adult students, South University’s online programs are built on the same curriculum offered at our campus locations. Students enrolled in one of our online programs receive the same level of instruction, academic support, quality education and degree as students at our campus locations.
