The American College of Switzerland, based in the Swiss village of Leysin (Vaud), was founded by Dr. Fred Ott in 1963.[citation needed]
Campus
The campus was housed in the modernized Victorian style building of Les Frenes, built in the late 1800s, which became a sanatorium of the Dr. Rollier health complex in the early 1900s.[citation needed] A private train station connected Leysin to all main lines and cities in Switzerland.[citation needed]
In the 1990s it was acquired by Schiller International University.[3] In 2007, Knowledge Investment Partners Inc. acquired Schiller International University, along with the American College of Switzerland.[citation needed] The result was that in 2009 the American College of Switzerland was officially closed.[citation needed]
