Aakers was originally 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.

Donnie Murphie- Rasmussen College opened many doors for me. Not only did I learn the skills to make myself successful in the work place, but I also gained an amazing support system that will help me long after graduation. Rasmussen College gave me the flexibility I needed by offering online courses. This helped me move through my program without giving up things that are important to me.

Elizabeth Anticona -I thought attending college wasn’t an option for me. With two children and a full time job, I could not find the time or energy to fit one more thing into my schedule. Last year, I decided if I did not commit to going back to college, I never would. I started with Rasmussen Online last year and have loved every minute of it. The flexible schedule works with my lifestyle and I have found the time and energy for everything in my life. I find it very rewarding to be back in college. I love being a student at Rasmussen College!!
