George Williams College of Aurora University
In 1992, Aurora University and George Williams College entered into an affiliation agreement, which paved the way for the schools to merge in 2000. The merger added a dynamic component to an already vigorous institution of higher learning.
While both campuses are distinctive, the institution as a whole is dedicated to the transformative power of learning. Both share a commitment to providing you with a personalized learning environment, where your professors are accessible to you and are focused on your success.
