and a global outlook. Several programs are nationally
recognized.

Quality Support
Teaching dominates at American International College. At 15-to-1,
we have one of the lowest student/faculty ratios you'll find. Our
faculty bring real-world experience into the classroom and are
available above and beyond the call of duty. And student-centered
classrooms help nurture our community.
AIC graduates triumph at major companies in Springfield as well as
nationally known corporations such as KPMG, Peat, Marwick and
NABISCO. Also in graduate programs at Harvard and MIT. 1-in-10
Springfield area doctors hold AIC degrees. And teachers and
administrators throughout the Northeast received their diplomas at
AIC.
