It is an honor for me to welcome you to the website for the American Association of Presidents of Independent Colleges and Universities (AAPICU). Since 1968, the organization has provided a framework for sharing and advancing the concerns of independent higher education.

If you are a visitor to this site who is also a current president of an independent college or university in the United States, please click the links to learn more about AAPICU. As you will see, our membership dues are very low and we believe that the value of participation in our annual meeting is extremely high.

Questions? Contact our Executive Director, Joshua Figueira at director@aapicu.org.

 -Kevin J. Worthen, President, AAPICU
