Welcome to Amarillo College

Community is the word that defines community college. Simply stated –

Amarillo College exists to advance the communities it serves and the people within them.

At AC, there is a pervasive spirit of service to students and community. This is as it should be. But there is more.

During my three decades in the community college movement, I have never observed a community and a college with a stronger partner-relationship than that which exists between Amarillo College and the Texas Panhandle. AC has the feel of a small college, but it has the intellectual and technological resources of a much larger college. It’s academic and occupation programs are in balance, as are its workforce development and continuing education programs. Its many campuses reach out to diverse communities and their people, yet the various parts of AC constitute a coherent whole.

Good things are happening at Amarillo College! AC is in the process of becoming something different than it has ever been before. Whether your interest in Amarillo College leads you into an academic transfer program, a technical training program, a healthcare career, or just to take classes on-line, I am confident that you will discover just how special AC truly is.

You really can start here . . . and go anywhere.
