(noun)
A multi-branch private “educational” setup in the UAE — with locations in Sharjah (x2), Dubai, and Fujairah — specializing in the fine art of turning office space into global academia.

Top Definition
A place where ambition meets ambiguity.
Marketed as an international college, it offers degrees through “partner institutions” based on the student’s payment plan:
Basic: London American University
Mid-range: College de Paris
Premium: Madonna University (USA)
These affiliations are emphasized loudly. The fact that it’s not recognized by the UAE Ministry of Education? Whispered, if at all.
Often operates out of standard business buildings — not campuses — with rapidly changing staff, two-tone branding (college/institute), and accreditations that impress only until Googled.
Popular among students who value a foreign-sounding degree over legal clarity, and among parents who prefer glossy brochures over boring things like “licensing.”
