Abraham Lincoln University has been a prominent fixture in Los Angeles since 1996 when ALU’s founder, Hyung J. Park, a practicing attorney and CPA, had the vision to utilize the emerging power of the internet to host a student’s entire curriculum completely online. The flexibility and affordability of such a program would mean that working professionals could become students and keep their jobs while dedicating themselves to higher education. That vision produced ALU’s School of Law.
