As of fall 2008, about 73% of the college’s 3,408 students on the main campus come from Georgia, with the remaining students representing more than 40 states and 25 countries. In 1999, The Art Institute of Atlanta celebrated fifty years of commitment to students and their success in their chosen fields. In that same year, the college moved to a new, five-story, 115,000-square-foot facility. In 2008, we opened The Art Institute of Atlanta-Decatur, a satellite campus located in the city of Decatur on the east side of the greater Atlanta area.

About half the student body is under 22, and about half are over 21, adult students returning to college or studying to earn a second degree. The college is proud of the diversity of the student body. The program of study is rigorous and includes art foundation and general education courses, as well as technical courses in each field.

Program offerings are reviewed regularly to stay current with the needs of a rapidly changing business environment. Students may attend day or evening classes in most programs. The Personal Track program offers an opportunity to take classes for credit on a part-time basis.

The Art Institute of Atlanta is one of The Art Institutes (www.artinstitutes.edu), with more than 40 education institutions located throughout North America, providing an important source of design, media arts, fashion, and culinary professionals. The parent company of The Art Institutes, Education Management Corporation (www.edmc.com) is among the largest providers of private post-secondary education in North America, based on student enrollment and revenue.
