The American College of Greece: Beautiful campus and exceptional school in Athens

The American College of Greece (ACG) is the oldest American-accredited college in Europe and the largest private college in Greece. Its website states, “ACG is an independent, not-for-profit, nonsectarian, co-educational academic institution.” ACG is located in Athens, but it was originally founded in 1875 in Smyrna.

Mara Nisdeo, Dean of North American Enrollment and Study Abroad at ACG, spoke to The National Herald about the school, noting first its wonderful setting and available programs.

“The American College of Greece (ACG) is nestled in the secure and picturesque northeastern suburb of Agia Paraskevi in Athens, Greece. With a history dating back to 1875, we take pride in providing high-quality education to students from more than 65 countries, said Nisdeo. ACG offers a unique opportunity for students to earn a U.S.-accredited degree in a European setting while benefiting from courses taught entirely in English.”

Nisdeo continued, “Our students can enrol in one of our 32 undergraduate majors across three schools: The School of Liberal Arts and Sciences, The School of Business and Economics, and The Frances Rich School of Fine and Performing Arts.
