I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I am a college. And I want you to be a student, if you aren’t one already. My mission is to help you understand why AC rocks! (And also to help you see how your life can be improved through an education at AC.)Guess what? I’m not a small school! There are more than 10,000 academic students during an average year. There more than 150 things to study, so we can probably find something you’re interested in. PLUS, I have a bunch of campuses—four in Amarillo (plus an outreach center), one in Hereford and one in Dumas. AND if you really don’t want to leave home, then keep your pajamas on and take some classes online. I have dozens and dozens of classes and even a few complete degrees that you can finish from the comfort of your own home. Or the nearest coffee shop.That's not all...I know you're looking for a real college experience. Sure you’ll have great professors and classes, but I can keep you busy outside of class, too. There’s always something going on, things like Badgerama, FallFest, live bands, celebrity speakers, coffeehouse, intramural sports, student government, all kinds of stuff. Trust me, at AC, we play as hard as we work.And hey, don’t worry…THIS ISN’T HIGH SCHOOL!!! Sure, you might run into friends and former classmates, but there are all kinds of people at AC, from all over the world. Come be one of us!....

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Well, I guess I’d like to meet you!But…who are you?Are you a high school student planning to get a job right after graduation? Why not swing through here first? I can get you extra training in a few weeks or a few months that will get you more skills and more pay.Are you a high school student who wants a Bachelor’s degree or beyond? I’ll help you get two years of solid education and courses that will transfer to the four-year university of your choice. (Psst…and I’ll save you a TON of money!)Maybe, just maybe, you’re older than 18? No biggie. You want a better job? I’ll help you get the training you need to get a better job. You want to finally earn that degree you’ve been thinking about? I’ll help you do that, too. Do you already have a degree? I can still help you reach another, higher goal!The thing is, I’m all about improving the quality of your life, no matter what stage of life you’re in. Why not check me out? What do you have to lose?
