The Association for Core Texts and Courses (ACTC) is a global association of colleges and universities supporting the use of classic texts and core curricula in undergraduate education.^[1] It is headquartered at Saint Mary's College of California. It is broadly associated with general education.^[2]

Members range from tiny institutions with a single curriculum, such as Deep Springs College (26 students), to large universities like Columbia University that offer a core curriculum or dedicated Great Books program. Although the majority of member institutions are in the United States, the ACTC also has member institutions in Canada, China, Guatemala, and Iraq.

The ACTC was organized in the course of the 1994-1995 academic year, and held its first conference in 1995.^[3]
