Recognition in the country`s top college guides and rankings doesn`t happen overnight. Since 1815, the accomplishments and contributions of Allegheny students, faculty and alumni have continued to strengthen the value of the Allegheny diploma. A typical Allegheny student might study political science, mathematics or studio art while preparing for medical school, but also play varsity soccer, report for the newspaper, intern at the hospital and learn to tango – all in the same week. Unusual combinations? These combinations of academic interests are everyday examples of our students challenging their intellects and pursuing their passions. At Allegheny, we invite students to tap all of their interests. The remarkable coalescence results in students who develop the skills essential in today`s global marketplace: being articulate, innovative, analytical, collaborative and creative.

West Hills Community College is a Coalinga, CA-based company in the Education sector.
Boston College was founded in 1863 by the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits) to educate Boston`s predominantly Irish, Catholic immigrant community. It opened its doors on September 5, 1864, in a building on Harrison Avenue in Boston`s South End, a “small streetcar college” for commuting students. When it outgrew the limitations of the space, then-president Rev. Thomas I. Gasson, S.J., bought 31 acres of the former Lawrence Farm in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, and broke ground in 1909 on a new campus, today fondly known as “the Heights.” BC began as an undergraduate liberal arts college, but as its aspirations grew, it added graduate programs and professional schools fulfilling its charter as a university.
