Academic Support

Student Success Advising

The Student Success Advising Center works closely with first-years, sophomores, and incoming transfer students to explore all aspects of their academic journey through a collaborative mentoring relationship.

AIC Plan for Excellence (APEX)

Whether you are a first-year or a transfer student, we know that transitions can be challenging. Most colleges have a first year experience course, but at American International College we believe college is a transformative experience and it is critical to support you as a student for all four years. AIC Plan for Excellence (APEX) is designed to help you make the most of your educational journey; develop relationships with faculty and staff, explore and discuss critical topics, and become connected to American International College. Our faculty are passionate about student growth and building community through their classrooms.
