Detroit Institute of Music Education

DIME DETROIT opened in the Fall of 2014 and the initial tuition for the entire 3-year BA program was $39,000.

DIME initially partnered with Falmouth University to validate its bachelor's degrees.

In 2016, they opened their second campus DIME Denver, based in the Santa Fe Arts District.

The DIME founders claim that MSU Denver “voluntarily breached” their agreement by refusing to adhere to the 360-day notice period of termination.

In a statement they stated, “On March 16th 2020, as the COVID 19 lockdown began, and without prior notice to DIME Directors or senior management, Metropolitan State University of Denver unilaterally announced by email to all DIME students and faculty that they were ending the MSU Denver at DIME partnership agreement."
