American Academy McAllister Institute of Funeral Service

The American Academy McAllister Institute of Funeral Service has an astounding 97% National Board Exam pass rate. Students gain from a strong academic support network as well as a small class size and attentive teachers.

The school offers an associate's degree program that can be completed in 12 to 16 months, depending on how many credits a student brings into the program. Furthermore, students have the option to complete the program entirely online, earning a degree in 20 to 48 months in the process.

Students can pursue AAMI's associate degree in funeral services complete- or part-time, on-campus or online. Both the online and campus versions provide identical courses, and both demand 69 credits of required coursework.

The subject material and demanding academic requirements of AAMI's online courses are the same as those of its on-campus programs. Except for the Funeral Directing Practicum Lab and Restorative Art, all of the courses will be taken virtually. If the students still need to complete the necessary clinical or embalming requirements, more time will be needed. You will need to travel to New York City to take these courses.

Classes are held on campus in the center of New York City. In addition to an extensive library devoted to funeral services, a lab for practicing embalming, and a computer resource center, the location has offices and classrooms.

Licensed funeral directors with extra education-related experience make up the majority of the instructors at the American Academy McAllister Institute of Funeral Service. A rich educational experience is offered by the integration of theoretical and practical scenarios.
