The governing instrument of European-American University is its Royal Charter of Incorporation. The Ordinances of the University are passed by Council (with Senate approval where necessary) to address particular issues of administrative governance or discipline with regard to its quotidian operations. The Ordinances should also be interpreted in line with any Regulations that may from time to time be approved by the Senate. The current Ordinances and Regulations will be found below, together with the Guides promulgated by the University for students and mentors respectively.
Prior to the grant of European-American University’s Royal Charter in 2012, the University operated on the basis of corporate authority from the Commonwealth of Dominica. The University maintained a supplementary incorporation in Dominica until 2019, when it was incorporated as an international private university in Panama, which continued as a supplementary incorporation until 2023.
