America Bangladesh University (Bengali: আমেরিকা বাংলাদেশ ইউনিভার্সিটি) or ABU is a private university in Dhaka, Bangladesh.[1] Which are not recognized by the University Grants Commission of Bangladesh (UCG).[2] [3]

According to the commission the proper ABU campus was located at 54/1 Progoti Sarani, Baridhara-Nodda, Dhaka-1212, Bangladesh. Several other campuses exist, that appear to be illegal.[4] iqbal Hossain Bhuiyan, deputy registrar of America Bangladesh University, denied that the illegal campuses were run by ABU.[4] The government cancelled the university's license but it in 2014 was still running under a stay order from a court.[5] [6] The ABU claims on its web page that the High Court have given full clearance to the university on 20 November 2013 [7] and that the unauthorized campuses have been ordered to close.[8] [9]

As of October, 2018 America Bangladesh University is not on the list of private universities at the University Grants Commission web site.[10] [3]
