Aakers College was a private two-year college with campuses in Grand Forks, North Dakota, Fargo, North Dakota and Bismarck, North Dakota. In 2007, it merged with Rasmussen College and is now known as Rasmussen College.[1][2] The school offers associate degrees and bachelor's degrees in several fields.
Aakers was founded in Fargo in 1902 and a second location was opened in Grand Forks, North Dakota in 1905. The Fargo location was sold in 1912 and the Grand Forks location became the only Aakers for decades. In 1998, the Grand Forks location was closed and operations were again moved to Fargo. The Bismarck campus opened in 2003.
