A long-established institution of higher learning in Northern Kentucky now has a new name.
The Northern Kentucky Campus, along with the College’s other Kentucky campuses in Lexington, Pikeville, Richmond, Louisville, and Danville, have become campuses of American National University. This change reflects the continuous evolution of the institution since 1886, including the addition of numerous bachelor’s and master’s degree programs available to Kentucky students through American National University’s virtual campus, physical campus, or a combined learning method which encompasses both online and onsite courses.
“The continued development of academic programs and professional training opportunities at our Kentucky Campuses reflects the same evolutionary process behind the transition of our Virginia, West Virginia, Indiana, and Ohio campuses to university status,” says American National University President Frank Longaker.
Programs such as the bachelor’s degree in medical health services management allow graduates from any of our health science associate degree programs (medical assisting, surgical technology, pharmacy technician, or health information management) that possess a certification in their field or a year’s work experience to enroll as a college junior and complete their bachelor’s degree in two years or less.
With nine bachelor’s and three master’s degree programs currently available, American National University offers the educational path needed to fit a lifetime of career goals.
National College campuses in Lexington, Florence, Pikeville, Richmond, Louisville, and Danville are affected by the transition. Frequently asked questions about the transition can be found at http://www.an.edu/about/questions/.
The Lexington Campus has been offering a career-oriented education to area students since 2006. The next term begins July 20.
Founded in 1886, National College and American National University are dedicated to the training and education of men and women for a full time life and a successful career in a number of fields in business, information technology, and health care. Serving 31 communities through campus locations in Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, and Indiana, as well as a growing online student body nationwide, National College and ANU currently serve approximately 5,000 students annually.
