The Alliance International University (AIU) is an unaccredited university in the Caribbean,[1] which formerly operated from Lusaka, Zambia. It has been described as "an online scam" by Undark Magazine.[2] It has no physical campus and all its activities take place online.[3]

It was de-registered by the Higher Education Authority (HEA) in April 2018 for offering substandard education.[4][5][6]
