History

In 1998, California University of Management and Sciences (CALUMS) was organized as a non-profit, public-benefit corporation chartered in the State of California. It is licensed to operate by the Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education (BPPE).

 In 2006, CALUMS was awarded an initial grant of accreditation from the Accrediting Council of Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS). In recognition of the school’s quality education at the time of evaluation, CALUMS was awarded with an eight-year grant of accreditation from 2009 through 2017. In 2010, ACICS recognized CALUMS as an Honor Roll Institution “with distinction for exhibiting a thorough understanding of the Accreditation Criteria and effectively implementing the standards in its daily operations as evidenced during its application for a new grant of accreditation.”

 CALUMS is a private institution of higher education that offers master’s degrees in business administration and computer information systems.

 In the Fall of 2022, CALUMS became a Christian-based institution of higher education to provide high-quality and affordable education while instilling Christian values.
