Robert Cavelier University (RCU) was established in New Orleans, Louisiana in August 2021, as a 100% online degree-granting institution.

RCU identified a need for accessible, affordable degrees that also meet the highest levels of regulatory scrutiny. Thus, the idea for establishing RCU as a US-based distance education institution was born.

With this goal met, RCU now seeks to educate students and obtain high levels of student satisfaction and strong student learning outcome achievement, with the Student Support of well-qualified faculty who are empowered to help students to achieve success.
