REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingAnne Arundel is probably the reason I am now so engaged in learning. Every professor I've had have been extremely supportive and encouraging. They've paved the my way to my dream career.
Jessica from Severn, MD
A great College and a wonderful gateway to a successful future for those who are unable to afford expensive universities and have struggled in previous educational experiences. Great staff and faculty and most easy to get in touch and many resources available for students on Campus and for the rest of the community in the area. Motivational, and a great place for multiple opportunities and helps you to be in control of your life.

AACC is great. Not only is is close to home but it is extremely affordable, and all of the instructors want to help you in accomplishing your degree.
Sarah from Pasadena, MD
AACC is a great choice if you still haven't decided what to do or if you want to get in a few credits to transfer to a university! They have a wide range of classes to take and programs to full-fill any of your wishes. Applying is easy and quick and the classes are so inexpensive!
Samantha from Hanover, MD
Very cheap, transferable credits, especially if you live (and/or plan to attend a 4-year college) in-state.
Richard from Glen Burnie, MD
There are many classes you can take in a wide range of subjects, and most of the professors here are experts in their field. For example, I took Bio 101; basic class, something to get out of the way, right? Well, my professor knew so many things, and about half of those things weren't even in the book! The lab was great too, we got to do hands on work on DNA sequencing and watched meiosis and mitosis right on the screen to see the difference. I've taken also ceramics and martial arts there. Master Sherman, my martial arts instructor, didn't just make us go through the exercises that every martial artist knows and helped us with learning different ways to defend ourselves that you can't learn in a Karate class alone.
