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 had a dire shortage of qualified mainframe programmers at that time.
Since then, the college has grown to more than 5,students, 20 programs of study, and 3 large, centrally-located campuses in New York and Florida. Today, in addition to computers, our programs focus on the rapidly-growing industries of healthcare, business and criminal justice.
