Global University was established in 1992. It comprises three faculties : Faculty of Health Sciences, Faculty of Administrative Sciences and Faculty of Literature and Humanities. In 1999, a presidential decree was signed by both the Lebanese President and the Prime Minister with backwards recognition of all students enrolled since 1992.
Global University complies with all the Ministry of Higher Education rules and regulations. This is why it is university policy to only accept students who hold an official Lebanese Baccalaureate or its equivalent to Sophomore as well as those who have completed American grade 12 and passed SAT I & SAT II to the Freshman program.
