Studialis was set up in November 2007 to build a business in the higher education sector in French-speaking countries. Over the next eight years, Studialis acquired thirteen French private education groups providing recognised undergraduate and graduate courses to a total of 17,500 students in the fields of management, marketing & communication, journalism, finance and accounting, graphic, industrial, interior, fashion and web design, acting and cinema, as well as in arts and culture management.

In October 2015, Studialis was sold to Galileo Education.
