Karamouzis3 Welcome to ACT!

The American College of Thessaloniki (ACT) is the tertiary division of Anatolia, a private, not-for-profit educational institution founded in 1886. ±Ø³Ô´ó¹Ïis an independent American institution chartered in the State of Massachusetts and accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE). ±Ø³Ô´ó¹Ïalso holds EU program validation and has been granted a license by the Greek government to operate as a private post-secondary College.

±Ø³Ô´ó¹Ïis a vibrant learning community, where students of 20 different nationalities meet a highly diverse faculty body to engage in discourse characterized by sharing and mutual respect. In addition to knowledge acquisition, the hallmarks of the ±Ø³Ô´ó¹Ïexperience are critical inquiry and service to others.  The ±Ø³Ô´ó¹Ïcurriculum promotes open inquiry in a conscious and systematic way, in order to broaden students’ horizons, cultivate their talents, enhance their understanding of the world, and prepare them for a life of empathy.

At ACT, we strongly believe in the role that the environment and in particular Gaia plays in fostering intellectual growth; that is why we have built a beautiful campus on a hill, overlooking the Aegean Sea. Under the Grecian blue sky and amid a plethora of ancient trees and shrubs (cypress, olive, plums, pomegranate, etc.), our students have the opportunity to use our state-of-the-art educational facilities in pursuing their educational goals. This is the same environment that, a few miles to the East became the birthplace of Aristotle, while a few miles to the West, the birthplace of Alexander the Great.

If you are currently an ±Ø³Ô´ó¹Ïstudent, I would like to congratulate you for your choice and ask you to be proud of your studies and your institution. If you are contemplating becoming an ±Ø³Ô´ó¹Ïstudent, I urge you to explore the ±Ø³Ô´ó¹Ïprograms of study and I encourage you to visit or contact us, in order to facilitate your joining of our community. We will be delighted to address all of your queries, and discuss your future.
