Central Turkey College information


There was also a Central Turkey College in Maraş.

Central Turkey College (sometimes called Aintab College) was a Christian high school founded between 1874 and 1876 by the American Mission Board in Aintab, Ottoman Empire (now Gaziantep, Turkey). It was on a site west of the city, and also had a branch for girls in town. It was burned down in 1891, but was rebuilt.

Its students were largely Armenian Protestants, but non-Armenians and non-Protestants also attended. One of its most famous graduates, for example, was Ashur Yousif, a member of the Syriac Orthodox Church and a future instructor at Euphrates College in Harput.

As a result of the massacres of the Armenians during the 1915 Armenian genocide, the college was transferred to the Syrian city of Aleppo,[1] through the efforts of its director John E. Merrill (1898–1937),[2] where it became known as Aleppo College or the Aleppo American College.[3]
