History


The school uses the campus formerly belonging to La Antigua Escuela Normal de Señoritas de San Marcos. From its founding in 1993, this school operated under the name University of Mobile, Latin American Campus in San Marcos and was operated by the University of Mobile. Ave Maria College acquired the school from the University of Mobile on July 1, 2000. The school was then called Ave Maria College of the Americas until it became the branch campus for Ave Maria University in 2007.
The Latin American Campus was then acquired by the Keiser University on July 1, 2013. Ever since, Keiser University and local partners have invested in infrastructure to allow the student body to grow significantly in the next 5-years. Keiser University LAC also offers a hybrid Graduate Certificate Program in Management and Leadership mainly offered in the offices of the Language Institute in Managua, located at the newly opened Ofiplaza San Dionisio complex.




Financial Aid


Keiser University Latin American Campus is one of the few U.S universities around the world, located outside the United States, authorized by the Department of Education to offer students Federal Aid to finance their studies. Keiser University participates in the federal student loan program which allows students and their parents to borrow money to help meet their educational costs.
