The University of the West Indies Open Campus serves Saint Lucia (a UWI contributing country) through open and distance learning, delivering UWI degrees and professional programmes; UWI qualifications are widely recognised across the Commonwealth Caribbean and internationally.
We list institutions whose accreditation we have verified against a recognized national or international accrediting body. Listing does not vouch for any specific program's recognition by destination-country regulators, individual admissions outcomes, or post-graduation credential transferability.
When you click through to a university's website, you are interacting with that institution's admissions process under their terms. Our responsibility ends at pointing you to a verified-accreditation institution.
