On August 4, 2026, American Public University System combined with Rasmussen University and Hondros College of Nursing to form a single higher education institution.  American Public University System (the System) now includes American Public University, American Military University, Rasmussen University, and Hondros College of Nursing.  The System is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and is a wholly owned subsidiary of American Public Education, Inc. (APEI).  We are continuing to update our website to reflect our new structure.
