"What This is About"
  • Cosmopolitan University grants an Honorary Doctoral Degree
  • to distinguished individuals who apply and qualify by meeting our standards.


  • Michael Jackson has one, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Bob Hope, Robert Redford, Bill Clinton, George Bush
  • and so on.


  • Sad enough one has to be either rich or famous or both to attract the offer of a university.


  • More than one thousand traditional universities award honorary doctorates.
  • But the standards and the donations they  expect are ridiculously high.


  • What we are doing at Cosmopolitan puts into perspective somewhat, the whole aspect of the real purpose of
  • honorary degrees. In fact, in our process we actually are recognizing people for their societal accomplishments
  • rather than for the typical recognition of a monetary relationship or as a publicity stunt.


  • Cosmopolitan University now grants an honorary doctoral degree too. We feel that lots of
  • distinguished people deserve an honorary degree, not just the rich and famous.


  • The owner of an honorary doctorate is given the legal right to use "Doctor" before his or her name,
  • it carries the same title "Doctor" that’s used for a regular degree.

"What This is About"

  • Your honorary degree will stem from a legitimate, renowned and thriving university. Cosmopolitan University uses this program to raise funds for some of its research projects (through a reasonable handling fee that applies). The university maintains a complete and permanent record on each honorary doctor and responds promptly to requests for validation when authorized by the recipient.


  • Your name will also be published on the CU's list of recipients of honorary degrees (optional, it is up to you to be published or you choose NOT to appear on that list).
