School Uniform
Students at American College Arcus are proud to wear the school uniform. The College’s uniform is an every-day outfit suitable for curricular and co-curricular activities. It assists students’ in making a proper choice of clothing for school as well as upholds the value we place on academic life, i.e. students are encouraged to seek being distinct on the basis of their acquired knowledge rather than on their appearance.

*For the top, which replaces the shirt in the daily wear of the unified student clothing, there are four options from which students can choose: a collared shirt, a collarless shirt, a long-sleeved collared shirt, and a collarless long-sleeved blouse. Each variety bears the college logo. The shirt color is light lime green (for students in middle school) sky blue (for students in secondary school) /see photos below/. At the beginning of each school year the college assists in organizing a massive joint order with the manufacturer company and every student is responsible for acquiring the required number and size of shirts and/or blouses. If you require additional pieces during the school year, you can order independently from the manufacturer´s website: https://www.bonitastyle.com/.
**Important notice! Each year, the school provides a tie with the college logo as well as a badge with a neck strap.
