Tampa College was a private business college founded as a coeducational, nonsectarian, and proprietary institution, in 1890. The school was originally located in Tampa, Florida. The final owner, Corinthian Colleges, folded the school into its Everest brand.
The school's mission was to provide practical education in areas of business such as bookkeeping and standard shorthand. The original college building (Davis) was three stories and located in the heart of the city. The school was open all year long and was the most up to date in the South.
Tampa College was chartered as a degree-granting institution in 1953 by the State of Florida. The college was licensed by means of accreditation by the Florida Commission for Independent Education.
It was also accredited by the ACICS, Accrediting Council of Independent Colleges and Schools, as a senior college of business to award Diplomas, Associate’s degrees, Bachelor’s degrees, and master's degrees. Medical programs were accredited by the Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools (ABHES).
