Is the university of Glasgow in Scotland approved by U S Department education?

The University of Glasgow is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education, but not in the way you might be thinking. The Department of Education doesn't "approve" universities in the same way a state might accredit a school. Instead, it recognizes foreign credentials for the purposes of federal student aid programs.

Therefore, while the University of Glasgow isn't explicitly *approved*, its degrees are generally accepted as credible for those seeking federal financial aid in the US or for other purposes that require the recognition of foreign educational qualifications. The key is that the University of Glasgow is highly regarded and accredited within the UK, which is typically sufficient for U.S. recognition.
