Private vs. Privately Held: Setting West Coast University Apart.

Being able to properly fund programs is a need for both public and private universities—and there are key differences — even among those in the Private sector.

For example, West Coast University and American Career College are all "Privately Held"—meaning that there are no shareholders to answer to, or major outside donors to influence decisions. In fact, the biggest drivers are the needs of the students, the professional roles they fulfill, and the advice of expert faculty that shape their skills.

With this privately held structure to streamline decisions, all three are uniquely positioned to do what's best for the students, the professions, and the communities we serve.
