TUI University (formerly Touro University International ), was established as a branch campus of Touro College, NY, on July 1, 1998, by its current President and CEO, Dr. Yoram Neumann. From the outset, TUI was organized and structured to be largely autonomous from the parent institution.

TUI was initially accredited as a branch campus of Touro College by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. Touro College was subsequently re-accredited by Middle States in 2004 which included the TUI branch campus. Because of TUI's location in California, its robust growth, fiscal and operational stability, and unique online delivery model, TUI was separately accredited by WASC in February 2005. After a change in control in October 2007, Touro University International is governed by a new board and its name was changed to TUI University (TUI). Under the new ownership, the TUI management team continues to lead the institution while the learning model, faculty, and staff maintain their central roles in the quality and vitality of TUI. TUI University is accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges and Universities of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and offers Federal Student Aid to its students.
