History
American International College was originally established on July 18, 1885 as the French Protestant College by Rev. Calvin E. Amaron, who sought to create an institution of higher learning that would provide the local French Protestant minority with access to higher education. Over the years the college expanded its admissions program to include women in 1892 and other minorities, who were not of French origin and emigrated to Western Massachusetts from other parts of Europe and Canada. Today, the college is a thriving multi-cultural institution of higher learning which continues to emphasize its commitment to the local community. A lot of hockey players who reside in the Hartford area elect to enroll in the school and just "make the commute from home."

College Advice on American International College |
Question: Should I go to American International College?o my god this is such a tough decision someone give me some feedback on this college!!!! most of my friends say that this college sucks but i dont know if their speaking out of ignorence. does this school suck or should i give it a chance???17 months ago
Best AnswerAIC is a regionally accredited college established in 1885. It has a long history of granting degrees that are worth as much as any other legitimate degree. I can't speak for their sales tactics, and that is for you to determine whether that is an issue or not. You might want to ask your friends why they say that it sucks. They should be able to support their opinion with facts, otherwise, don't listen to them. |
Question: American International College or SpringField College?ok heres the deal i am going to be a transfer from a regual private callege and a jr college at frist i want to go to springfireld college ma but was rejected due to a low gpa so i went to jr college for a semester but i have also looked at american international college also in springfield mass. i am a physical education major something sprigfield college has but i have also been considering going into sports managment im wondering on what should i do for the future and what should be the good fit i have credits for both majors20 months ago
Best AnswerBoth American International College and Springfield College have accreditation so it would be all right for you to attend either of these institutions. As to a choice of majors between sports management and physical education, that depends on your interests and abilities and only you can make that decision. My advice to you is to make an appointment with an academic adviser in the areas of your interest at each college and have a chat with them. s |
