Could someone that still goes to this school add some more information? I've uploaded the only (nice) photo I have of the place when I went there. It'd be nice to see some info on the school before it's demolished! TS Death Angel 19:52, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Assess

I sense that this school is possibly of some importance but without any content to the article it warrants nothing more than a low. In its present state this article is a possible candidate for deletion. I suspect the school deserves better. Dahliarose 20:32, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I attended ASA at the Cults campus, and graduated from ASA in 1986. I would like to expand the article a bit as I have time. This school is notable as a source for an American-style education for the very large number of American and international workers attracted to Aberdeen Scotland due to the petrochemical industry centered on the North Sea. Aberdeen as been called the "Houston (TX) of the North Sea", [that is, Houston is to the Gulf of Mexico as Aberdeen is to the North Sea] and served as a center for oil exploration and exploitation companies as well as engineering eduction and development in the colleges and universities. The student body of ASA ranged from children of roughnecks to children of executives, and was small enough that cliquishness wasn't much of a problem. We ASA alumni treasure our memories of the time we spent at ASA and the portions of our livers which we destroyed there. I'll work on this as I get time.
