Affiliated school

An affiliated school (also affiliated college, federated school, federated college or federated university) is an educational institution that operates independently, but also has a formal collaborative agreement with another, usually larger institution that may have some level of control or influence over its academic policies, standards or programs.

While a university may have one or several affiliated colleges, it is not necessarily a collegiate university, which is a union or federation of semi-autonomous colleges. For the most part, this model is restricted to colleges and universities. On rarer occasions, however, elementary schools or high schools may also enter into affiliating agreements.

Examples of affiliated schools by area

Canada

In Canada several universities have federated or affiliated colleges, some of which predate the parent institution.

University of Alberta

St. Joseph's College is the Roman Catholic liberal arts college affiliated with the University of Alberta. The college provides offers courses open to students of both institutions, an on-campus chapel for the celebration of mass during the week, and a coeducational residence.[1]

Laurentian University

Laurentian University had four federated institutions, three of which were located on the main campus in Sudbury, which offered a variety of degrees in association with the university. The federations were dissolved as a result of the financial crisis the university experienced on May 1, 2021.[2]

  • L’Université de Hearst is French language university-level institution located in Hearst and the only formerly federated institution that is not located on the main Sudbury campus. It is now an independent university in its own right.
  • Thorneloe University is affiliated with the Anglican Church of Canada and offered courses in fine arts, theatre, classics, and women's studies. It currently only offers theological programs, which have been continued post-break up of the federation.[3]
  • The University of Sudbury was a Catholic, bilingual institution, which offered courses in religious studies, philosophy, indigenous studies and folklore. It is now a French language, secular university, but is not currently accepting students as it restructures.[4]
  • Huntington University was focused on arts and humanities studies, is affiliated with the United Church, and offered courses in communication studies, ethics, gerontology, philosophy, religious studies and theology. It is currently not offering degree programs, but is instead operating as an independent student residence.[5]

University of Regina

The University of Regina has three federated colleges, which offer various degrees in conjunction with the university:

All three colleges are located on the University of Regina's main campus, and all students of the federated colleges are also registered as students of the university.

University of Saskatchewan

St. Thomas More College is the Roman Catholic liberal arts college federated with the University of Saskatchewan,[6] and is located on the university's campus in Saskatoon. The administration and financial details of the college are autonomous, but the academics are closely interrelated with the university.[7]

India

Similar arrangements exist between universities and affiliated colleges in Pakistan.[12]

United Kingdom

In England and Wales, the term federated school is used to refer to schools that are part of a school federation,[13] which are groups of schools that share one governing body or collaborate through a shared committee.[14]

Historically, affiliated colleges have existed at some universities in the UK. These include:

University of Cambridge

The University of Cambridge affiliated university colleges in the UK from the late 19th century. Students who had completed two years at these institutions were permitted to reduce the time spent getting an undergraduate degree at Cambridge by a year. The affiliated colleges in 1914 were:[15]

Durham University

Durham University has had various forms of affiliated college from the late 19th century, including "affiliated colleges" where students could study for Durham degrees (for which provision still exists in the statutes as of 2020, although without any institutions having this status[16]), "associated theological colleges" where students could study for the Durham License in Theology and could count the three years spent on that course against two years on the BA course at Durham, and "Institute of Education colleges" for teacher training.[17]

The affiliated colleges were:[17][18]

The category of associated theological colleges existed from the 1870s until 1949.[19] It included at various times:[18][17][20]

Australia

Canada

Isle of Man

Jamaica

New Zealand

Nigeria

United Kingdom

Colleges affiliated to Durham University's Institute of Education from the 1940s to the 1970s included:[17]

University of London

As first created in 1836, the University of London was an examining board for its affiliated colleges (initially only University College London and King's College London, often referred to as the 'founding colleges'), including a number of Catholic institutions and dissenting academies whose students could not take degrees at Oxford, Cambridge or Durham. This system continued until 1858, when University of London examinations were thrown open to all students with the establishment of the external degree system. The University of London later became a federal university in 1900. By 1858, the following institutions (as they are given in the 1858 charter) had been recognised as affiliated colleges:[22]

University of Oxford

The University of Oxford affiliated university colleges in the UK from the late 19th century. Students who had completed two years at these institutions were permitted to reduce the time spent getting an undergraduate degree at Oxford by a year. The affiliated colleges in 1906 were:[23]

United States

Columbia University

In the United States, Columbia University is associated in various ways with several affiliated schools. Most notably, Barnard College is legally and financially separate from Columbia but its students have access to the instruction and facilities of Columbia. A similar arrangement exists with Teachers College, which since its affiliation with Columbia has served as the University's Faculty and Department of Education. Columbia has more limited cooperative arrangements and joint programs and degrees with two nearby independent institutions: Union Theological Seminary and Jewish Theological Seminary.

Harvard University

Radcliffe College's relationship to Harvard University resembled that of Barnard to Columbia until Radcliffe was completely merged into Harvard in 1999.

Yale University

The Yale Divinity School, part of Yale University, is associated with two affiliated schools, Berkeley Divinity School and the Andover-Newton Seminary. Both Berkeley (from 1854 until 1971) and Andover-Newton (from 1807 to 2017) were once entirely independent seminaries and they still maintain their own Boards of Trustees and distinctive missions. Berkeley also still awards its own diplomas and certificates in Anglican ministry. But the students of both affiliated schools are also enrolled at, and receive degrees from, the Yale Divinity School and both their students and their faculty are fully integrated into the life of the larger institution.

University of California

The University of California College of the Law, San Francisco is affiliated, as its name suggests, with the University of California, but it is not directly governed by the Regents of the University of California.
