Disclaimer
East Bridge University (EBU) is a private, independent, higher education establishment,
incorporated in Paris, France. EBU does not claim to be offering FRENCH NATIONALLY
ACCREDITED programs, nor does it claim to confer academic degrees as do traditional
public or private universities in France or other parts of the world.
EBU's skill-development programs and their ensuing awards and certifications are most
conducive to personal and professional development purposes. EBU does not claim that its
programs or professional awards are academic in nature, as do other traditional/ public/
private universities in France or other parts of the world. Students are required to do their
independent research regarding the suitability of EBU programs and ensure certifications
based on the assessment of their personal and professional development needs before
enrolling in EBU programs.
Candidates who wish to legalise their EBU awards could do so by following the apostille
process, which is a service provided by EBU through its legal agency in Paris, France at an
additional fee. This service from time to time can change due to the changing terms and
conditions of the MOFA and Embassies. While EBU will try to help students to fetch these
wherever required but these cannot be guaranteed. EBU degrees are eligible for apostille
certification, which is an official document issued by a government or secretary of state. This
certification ensures that a document from one country is recognized as valid and acceptable
for use in another country.
EBU's decision to seek accreditation and professional memberships outside of France is a
strategic choice reflective of its authorisation and operational framework. By pursuing
international accreditation, EBU aims to ensure that its programs meet rigorous standards of
quality and recognition on a global scale, enhancing the value of its awards and credentials in
the international marketplace.
Degree Terminology and Restrictions:
French law prohibits private institutions from using protected academic terms such
as “baccalauréat,” “licence,” “master,” and “doctorat” for their institutional diplomas. Where
terms like “Master” are used in EBU's diploma titles, they are in accordance with
institutional permissions and do not represent equivalence to French national degrees.
Aligned with its authorisation, operational framework, and legal status in France, East Bridge
University actively pursues program-specific recognition and accreditation from independent-
recognised organisations across the EU and worldwide.
Transparency and Student Responsibility:
EBU is dedicated to ensuring transparency about its programs and certifications. While
providing high-quality education through English-medium, distance-learning programs,
students are encouraged to independently verify the recognition and applicability of EBU
certifications in their respective countries for further education, employment, or credential
recognition.
By enrolling in EBU programs, students acknowledge and accept these terms, ensuring
alignment with their academic and professional aspirations.
