The school began its education program in the theology building of the American Missioners Commission. The first wing of the school was built with the same stones as those used in Rumeli Fortress and opened in 1871. The affiliated American Girls College was inaugurated in the same year in Arnavutköy and these two institutions became the first American educational institutions founded outside of the United States. In 1971, the college level of Robert College was converted to Boğaziçi University. The same year, Robert College merged with the American Girls College to continue its activities on the Arnavutköy campus. SALT Research, Photography Archive Robert Kolej 1863’te İstanbul’da açıldı. Cyrus Hamlin ve Christopher Robert tarafından kurulan okul, geçici olarak Amerikan Misyonerleri Heyeti’nin Bebek’te bulunan ilahiyat okulunun binasında eğitime başladı. Okula ait ilk bina, Rumeli Hisarı’nın yapımında kullanılan taş malzemeyle inşa edilerek 1871’de açıldı. Aynı yıl Robert Kolej ile kardeş okul olan Amerikan Kız Koleji Arnavutköy’de eğitime başladı. Bu iki kurum, ABD sınırları dışındaki ilk Amerikan okulları olarak tarihe geçti. 1971’de Robert Kolej’in yüksekokul bölümü Boğaziçi Üniversitesi’ne dönüştürüldü. Yine 1971’de Amerikan Kız Koleji ile birleşip karma eğitime geçen Robert Kolej ise, hâlen Arnavutköy kampüsünde eğitime devam etmektedir. SALT Araştırma, Fotoğraf Arşivi
