| CAMPUS SUMMARY |
 |
Apollo College has a long and proud history of assisting people to become skilled professionals who have gone on to positions of importance in their communities. Margaret M. Carlson, who continues to serve as the school’s Chief Executive Officer, founded Apollo College in June 1976. In the decades since, over 45,000 Apollo graduates have learned the skills needed for entry into a number of vital careers. For decades, Apollo College graduates have had rewarding careers in the medical and dental fields, where they have helped save lives and improve the health of many tens of thousands of people. Today, Apollo continues this tradition of outstanding education in the allied health fields, and the College now brings its reputation for excellence to the rapidly expanding field of information technology. Associate of Applied Science degree programs and certificate programs in Software Engineering and in Network and Database Administration offer the same standards of quality and dedication to preparing students for important careers that have made Apollo College a leader in career education.
Apollo College programs can be completed within two months to two years, depending on the course of study. Various programs are offered in the morning, afternoon or evening to accommodate students’ scheduling needs. Class size is limited to ensure each student the personal attention required to master the subject. The campuses, located in Arizona, Oregon and Washington, are modern, comfortable facilities that provide outstanding environments for serious study and learning.
