About ASA College:
ASA’s modest roots began in 1985 with a professor and 12 students in a small Brooklyn classroom. Known then as ‘Advanced Software Analysis’, the College focused on computer programming, as New York City had a dire shortage of qualified mainframe programmers at that time.
Since then, the college has grown to more than 3,000 students, 20 programs of study, and two large, centrally located campuses in midtown Manhattan and downtown Brooklyn as well as one campus in Hialeah, Florida. Today, in addition to computer technology, our programs focus on the rapidly-growing industries of healthcare, business and criminal justice.
