Area Guides

Please Note

This list is purely for your information, and does not represent a recommendation or endorsement on the part of the Academy.

College Park is part of a tri-city area that included College Park, East Point and Hapeville. The area of Virginia Avenue includes all three municipalities so the city addresses may be a little confusing. In addition, many national chains use "Atlanta" as a generic listing since we are located next to the Atlanta Airport. We are actually about 10 miles south of downtown Atlanta.
