Sarasota University was established in 2012 to provide quality educational experiences for adult learners. The goal of the founders was to create a Montessori-inspired, learner-centered, caring community distinguished by rigor, relevance, and civility.   The program is infused with a focus on Positive Psychology and a Strengths-Based approach to education. The result is a contemporary university incorporating “Best Practices” in adult learning through use of online instructional tools and resources.

In 2023 Sarasota University, a private non-profit University in Sarasota, Florida, became the first university to receive institutional MACTE Accreditation. Built on a foundation of Montessori Philosophy and Strengths-Based learning, SU offers a Bachelor's Completion Degree, Master's degrees in Montessori Leadership and Montessori Education, a Doctor of Education degree in Montessori, and a Doctoral Completion program.

Sarasota University proudly stands as a fully accredited institution by the Montessori Accreditation Council for Teacher Education (MACTE). This accreditation solidifies our commitment to providing an exceptional education rooted in Montessori principles.
