Alba Graduate Business School at the American College of Greece

In 1875, the American College of Greece was formed as a girls' school in Smyrna, Asia Minor. Following the surrender of Asia Minor to the Turks, it was transported to Hellenikon, Athens, at the invitation of then-Prime Minister of Greece Eleftherios Venizelos. Its premises were used as a hospital under German command during the Axis occupation of Greece. The College reopened after the war at Hellenikon, where it remained until it relocated to its current site in the Athens suburb of Agia Paraskevi.
