South University, Orlando | Programs & Degrees
Our Orlando location is designed to provide busy students in the Orlando area with an accessible location for attending classes and meeting with South University advisors and faculty as they pursue their degree.
Overview
The Orlando campus of South University helps your educational journey feel more personalized with smaller class sizes and a focused selection of degree programs to help prepare you to pursue a career.
While Orlando may be home to world-renowned resorts like Walt Disney World and Universal Studios, there's also Lake Eola Park and the Dr. Phillips Center for Performing Arts for a more relaxed, cultural experience. The campus is easily accessible from the 417 and 408 expressways and sits near the lovely Lake Ellenor. The bus routes of 08, 42, and 304 provide greater access to those who utilize public transportation.
Our faculty and staff don't just teach in the classroom; they often host workshops and offer mentorship to the wider community. Our sense of community is strengthened by our connection to the East Orlando Chamber of Commerce, along with many other professional and personal relationships across the Orlando area. The staff is here to help students achieve not only a degree but pursue a career and a purpose — especially for those who may not have followed a traditional path to higher education.
There are a variety of programs available at the Orlando campus, including the BSN and Anesthesiologist Assistant programs. Some are taught entirely online, while others are in a more traditional, classroom setting. Other programs may be taught in a hybrid format of both. Our clinical programs have in-person practicums and components, so you have the opportunity to gain hands-on practice with your skills. Our programs include areas like Business & Technology, Healthcare, Nursing, and Public Health.
Our Campus offers: Student Lounge Space, On Campus & Virtual Library, Career Services, Academic Success Center for learning support
