ASA College HistorySuccessfully Educating New Yorkers Since 1985

4

ASA College History ASA’s modest roots began in 1985 with Alex Shchegol, our founder and president and 12 students in a small Manhattan classroom. Known then as ‘Advanced Software Analysis’, the institute focused on computer programming, as New York had a dire shortage of qualified mainframe programmers at that time. Since then, the college has grown to more than 5000 students, 20 programs of study, and 2 large, centrally-located campuses in midtown Manhattan and downtown Brooklyn. Today, in addition to computers, our programs focus on the rapidly-growing industries of healthcare, business and criminal justice.Over the years, as technology revolutionized how every major industry operates, ASA created and updated programs of study to meet new market needs. Consistent with the demands and capabilities of our student body, which includes highly motivated and mature immigrants, ASA programs have always featured a “hands-on” training component. In 1999, ASA received authorization from the New York State Board of Regents to confer degrees in accounting, computer programming and information technology and medical assisting.
