History and Mission Statement
History of Bryant & Stratton College
Bryant & Stratton College’s rich history is rooted in over 165 years of outcomes- based education. Its founding can be traced back to 1852, when H. B. and J. C. Bryant and their brother-in-law, H.D. Stratton, organized Bryant & Stratton Mercantile College in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1854, J.C. Bryant, a noted physician and businessman, established Bryant & Stratton College in Buffalo, New York. Throughout the next century, the College developed career-based degrees and training programs to meet the needs of young and working adults seeking jobs and career advancement in business and industry due to both employer and student demands. From the 1960s through the current period, the College expanded its program offerings to healthcare, technology, justice, financial and service sectors. In 2000, the College offered distance learning through an Online Education division. Today the institution has many locations; however it is one college with several branches and additional locations, referred to as campuses. The College confers over thirty associate and baccalaureate degrees and offers diploma and certificate programs for select occupations. In June of 2002, the College earned accreditation status from the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSA), now known as Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE) www.msche.org. The College’s accreditation status is Accreditation Reaffirmed. The Commission’s most recent action on the institution’s accreditation status on June 22, 2017 was to reaffirm accreditation. This history continues to build as the next generation of higher education evolves and the College continues to fulfill its mission.
