About Anna Maria College
Anna Maria College is a private, not-for-profit, Catholic liberal arts institution accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges. Founded by the Sisters of Saint Anne in 1946, AMC's programs integrate liberal education and professional preparation that reflect the respect for liberal arts and sciences education grounded in the traditions of the Sisters of Saint Anne -- educational innovation, service to others, and access to a quality education for all.
In addition to the various undergraduate and graduate programs and courses offered at its campus in Paxton, Massachusetts, AMC offers undergraduate and graduate programs online to reach the most diverse group of students possible. Our online programs mirror the close-knit nature of our campus community, with small class sizes that allow for mentor relationships to develop between faculty and students.

Anna Maria College Learning Format
In online courses, students attend class by accessing the virtual classroom through an online learning system. Just like in a traditional course, students complete and turn in assignments -- which might include readings, writing a paper, or completing a special project -- according to a class schedule. Students are required to communicate regularly with the instructor and participate in discussions with classmates in the online forums.
