The Situation

North American universities have faced difficulties expanding abroad, with notable unsuccessful ventures in Saudi Arabia and Dubai. However, demand for high-quality education is rising in regions like Asia and the Middle East, making this a prime moment for institutions to expand internationally.

What's Working Elsewhere

British and Australian universities have succeeded with partnership models that reduce financial risk. By starting with undergraduate programs and building out research and postgraduate offerings over time, they’ve established strong international presences without sacrificing quality or stability.

The Path Forward

North American universities are in an ideal position to capitalize on global demand. With OEG’s expertise, your institution can expand internationally, maintain academic excellence, and enhance its global reputation—all while avoiding the financial risks that have challenged others.

Strategic Alignment

Is your institution facing structural long-term financial deficits? If so, can establishing an international branch campus align with your university’s mission, vision, and long-term strategic goals?

Does your institution have the internal capacity, resources, and buy-in to engage effectively with OEG and its partners throughout this process?

Trust in Partnerships

Are you comfortable collaborating with OEG, entrusting us with key aspects of the project while maintaining oversight to ensure adherence to your university’s policies and standards?
