With its rich history and strategic geopolitical location, Greece offers a contemporary lifestyle as well as the presence of the rich heritage of both the east and west. Anatolia College is an American-sponsored, private educational institution founded in 1886. Classes held at Anatolia's beautiful 45-acre campus are small enough to ensure close interactions between the professor and student. Many of the campus buildings overlook the city. The American College of Thessaloniki offers programs of study in the arts and sciences, and in business administration.
All coursework is taught in English, and no prior study or knowledge of Greek language is required.
Students earn up to 17 undergraduate credits on the program, and the program is open to students with a 2.5 GPA and at least college freshman standing. The on-campus apartments are small, European style quarters which include kitchen and bath facilities. Extracurricular activities are an important part of the program, including cross-cultural orientation programs, excursions, museum visits, archeological digs, dance classes, and student clubs. Excursions may include Athens, Vergina-Dion, Meteora and Mount Athos. Copyright 1999 St. Bonaventure University.
