Democratizing Higher Education

Making quality, affordable education accessible to every person on the planet

Our Mission

"To educate the remaining global population who cannot afford traditional higher education, and to eradicate the predatory degree mill industry by providing legitimate, affordable, and high-quality online education."

Hutchinson University was founded on a simple but powerful belief: education is a fundamental human right, not a luxury reserved for the privileged few. We exist to break down the financial, geographic, and systemic barriers that prevent billions of people worldwide from accessing quality higher education.

While traditional universities charge exorbitant tuition fees that trap students in decades of debt, and diploma mills exploit desperate learners with worthless credentials, we offer a third path: legitimate, accredited degrees at a fraction of the cost, delivered entirely online to reach students wherever they are.

The Problem We're Solving

💸 Unaffordable Education

Traditional universities charge $50,000-$100,000+ for a four-year degree, pricing out billions of talented individuals worldwide. Student loan debt has reached crisis levels, burdening graduates for decades.

🚫 Geographic Barriers

Quality education remains concentrated in wealthy nations and urban centers. Rural communities and developing countries lack access to legitimate higher education institutions, leaving potential untapped.

🎭 Predatory Degree Mills

Diploma mills exploit desperate learners, selling worthless "degrees" that provide no education and aren't recognized by employers. These institutions damage the credibility of legitimate online education.

⏰ Rigid Schedules

Traditional programs require students to quit jobs, relocate, or sacrifice family responsibilities. Working adults and parents are effectively excluded from accessing higher education.
