Albertson College of Idaho

About Albertson College

Our Tradition

Since by its charter, Albertson College of Idaho is not controlled by any political entity, it is free to establish its own educational policy, to set its own requirements for admission, to determine its own course of study, and to determine its requirements for graduation. Thus our courses in religion are non-sectarian, and our admission policy is formulated without regard to creed, gender, color, race, handicap, sexual orientation, or national origin. The College values and is committed to the faith of its founders, and it therefore opposes oppression of all kinds—physical, intellectual, religious, political, economic, sexual, and social.

For more than a century, Albertson has produced graduates who have become leaders in business, science, medicine, law, education, the arts, and government. Alumni include two former governors, a Pulitzer Prize-winning historian, an Academy Award-winning musician, the co-discoverer of vitamin B-1 2, and the cofounder of Patagonia Outerwear.
