Who we areA university
A university
without walls.
Claremont University’s educational philosophy begins with a simple idea: meaningful learning happens throughout life—in formal study, at work, and through personal experience.
Our approach connects that learning with academic inquiry. Through faculty mentorship, portfolio assessment, and independent study, learners develop a plan that reflects their knowledge, interests, and goals.
Claremont is rooted in a distance-learning model, giving self-motivated adults a way to pursue scholarly work beyond a traditional classroom.
Our missionTurn learning
Turn learning
into contribution.
Our mission is to support a global community of mature, self-motivated scholars and learners. We value the experiences, backgrounds, and perspectives each person brings to education.
We encourage rigorous research, thoughtful inquiry, and work that contributes to a community, a profession, or a field of knowledge. Personal growth and lifelong learning are central to that purpose.
Our approach
Individual goals. Thoughtful guidance.
Plan with purpose
An individual learning contract connects academic expectations with the learner’s area of interest and identifies the work still to be completed.
Develop through inquiry
Faculty mentorship supports independent study, research, and creative work, including projects, theses, dissertations, compositions, or performances where appropriate.
