Over the last few months, Arizona College has been in the process of remodeling our Glendale campus.  We have been in this location over ten years and it’s nice to freshen up the look and feel of the campus, based on the design of the Mesa campus. We updated all of our labs, expanded the student lounge, added classroom space, and created better areas for students and staff to work. The main lobby has new stainless steel and glass doors and has been completely opened up, resulting in more light and open space!  We also moved our faculty, student services, and career services into one area to better serve our students and facilitate work among our staff.

It’s official; the Holiday Season is here!  Can you believe that Christmas is only 3 weeks away?!  In keeping with Arizona College tradition, our lovely blue and silver Arizona College Christmas Angel Tree is currently displayed in the front lobby.

Arizona College is Thankful this holiday season…  Thanksgiving is here and with Christmas less than 4 weeks away, it is nice to sit back and reflect on the accomplishments of the year.   Arizona College has many of them.   The approval and launch of our Bachelor of Science in Nursing program located at our new Mesa Campus, our Glendale Campus remodel and ABHES site visit with zero compliance violations, to name a few.  On a daily basis, we have the opportunity to educate students and assist them in reaching their full professional potential and help them to find jobs in their field of study, which changes their lives forever. Arizona College has an amazing staff and student body that truly cares about their fellow coworkers and classmates.  Like years in the past, this Thanksgiving, Arizona College held a Holiday Food Drive, creating Thanksgiving Family Food Baskets for students in need.  Each…
