I got the same quality of education at Aims as if I were going to a four-year college and it's even better because I got so much one-to-one contact with the professors. And because the class sizes were so small at Aims, I was able to make those kinds of connections with my peers, too, and created really good friendships.
Jackie E., Aims2UNC Transfer Student
Aims is a great choice for students graduating high school because we offer an array of programs to fit virtually any career path. Aims also provides courses at a much lower price than graduating students would find elsewhere, but that definitely doesn't mean it's a lower value of education! Our faculty and staff are the best of the best and are here because they genuinely care about student success.
