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.

APU online master's programs are ideal if you want a more in-depth study of your undergraduate degree or to pursue new academic study in another field. You must have completed a bachelor's degree from an accredited institution before starting a master's degree program at APU. Master's degrees range from 30 to 47 semester hours (about 10-15 courses) and culminate with a capstone course. Dual degree programs allow for completion of two master's degrees within a compressed time frame with one culminating capstone experience.
