American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU)

AASCU's nearly 400 college and university members are found throughout the United States and in Guam, the Bahamas, China and Guyana. Campuses range in size from approximately 1,000 students to more than 45,000. AASCU members are found in the inner city; in suburbs, towns and cities; in remote rural America; and internationally. They are institutions of access and opportunity, believing that the promise of access and success should be real for all Americans. AASCU members are student-focused, committed to programs and policies that place students at the heart of their institution. And they are “stewards of place,” engaging faculty, staff and students with the communities and regions they serve—helping to advance public education, economic development and quality of life.
