Choice Hotels near University of Alaska Anchorage offer budget-friendly options. UAA traces its origins back to 1954, five years before Alaska became the 49th U.S. state. That year, Anchorage Community College (ACC) was founded and began offering evening classes to 414 students at Elmendorf Air Force Base. This was the first time that college-level courses were offered in the Anchorage area. In 1962, ACC was incorporated into the University of Alaska statewide system. Five years later, ACC began offering classes at the current campus location, providing academic study for associate degrees, the first two years of work toward baccalaureate degrees, and a variety of adult learning, career and continuing education programs. In the late 1960s, interest in establishing a four-year university brought about the birth of the University of Alaska, Anchorage Senior College (ASC). While ACC administered the lower division college, ASC administered upper-division and graduate programs leading to baccalaureate and master’s degrees, as well as continuing education for professional programs. In 1977, ASC became a four-year university and was renamed the University of Alaska, Anchorage (UA,A). Ten years later, ACC and UAA merged to become University of Alaska Anchorage.
