American International College (AIC), in partnership with the Springfield Empowerment Zone Partnership (SEZP), has been designated as a Massachusetts Early College Program by the state’s joint Early College Committee. The designation is one of eighteen newly announced by the Healey-Driscoll Administration and makes AIC the only private college west of Worcester to be included.

Set to launch in Fall 2025 at Duggan Academy in Springfield, the program will follow a wall-to-wall model in which every student participates. Through this model, students will be able to earn up to 60 college credits—at no cost—before graduating from high school. Courses will include MassTransfer-eligible credits and focus on high-demand fields such as health sciences, education, and criminal justice.
