Atlantic University is an American private non-profit
distance education institution of higher and continuing education in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The university is associated with Edgar Cayce's Association for Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.), and its
administrative offices are in the Don and Nancy de Laski Education Centre on
the main A.R.E. campus. The university is nationally accredited by the Distance
Education Accrediting Commission (DEAC), which is a member of the Council for
Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA), for its distance education and
hybrid programs. The university also maintains licensure with the State Council
of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV).
History
Atlantic
University received its charter on April 29, 1930, with a goal of offering
a liberal arts education from a holistic perspective. The
university closed in 1931, but the charter was kept active. In
the fall semester of 1985, Atlantic University reopened as a graduate
school with a curriculum that focused on Transpersonal Studies. The
first class graduated in 1989.
Initially
the Master of Arts in Transpersonal Studies was offered as
a residential program with a few independent study distance education options
via a correspondence course model. Over the years, the ratio of
distance to residential courses changed until the majority of courses were
taught as distance education. The method of instruction of distance courses
also changed from a correspondence course model to web-based courses to courses
on CD. In 2010, the conversion to a truly online school with three
semesters began. As the university changed, continuing education and personal enrichment
courses were added. In 2017, the university changed from three 14-week
semesters to four 12-week semesters allowing for students to complete their
program more efficiently. In recent years, the Master of Arts in Transpersonal
Studies was changed to Master of Arts in Transpersonal Psychology, thus
making the program more accessible and understandable to the outside public. In
addition to the Transpersonal psychology degree, Atlantic University offers a
Master of Arts in Mindful Leadership, a Graduate Certificate in
Regression Hypnosis, a Graduate Certificate in Mindful Leadership, a
non-credit certificate in Spiritual Guidance Mentor Training, and Lifelong
Learning certificates to adult learners.
