In the centre of the Pacific Ocean, miles away from any other stretches of land, lays an island that to muggle eyes wouldn't even exist. Yet in the eyes of witches and wizards gives hope of knowledge and higher education, and that's exactly what Agnosco means. Agnosco is the Latin for knowledge, which is what the students of the Agnosco Institute of Magic plan to achieve by coming to this place. Sure, even if a Muggle does happen to stumble across this remote island which is covered by many magical tricks, they wouldn't know what they were looking for. All that is on the island is a small wooden shack which has absolutely nothing inside. There's no reason for its existence, apart from allowing access to the many sub-levels of the school below. On top of the island is a typical desert island. Palm trees, coconuts, sandy beaches, etc. It's a place where the students of the underground school can relax and take some time to think if they want to do so. And it's quite a big island, too. But not like a whole continent or anything, just big enough to enjoy. In the centre of the island is a small rainforest, which can be used as shade from the midday sun if you don’t want to be caught in it, or just as somewhere to sit and cool down for a while. At the edge of the forest is the shack which has a certain floorboard which needs tapping that will then take you and the rest of the occupants of the shack down into the college itself...
-----------------------------------
The school has been open for hundreds of years, yet it only served purpose as a private school for the richest of purebloods around the world. A fee was needed to tutor their children, yet one year there were no participants whatsoever, and none the year after that, or the year after that. And so the school closed and looked as though it would simply rot into nothing. Yet in the 1800's, a young woman came about and restored the building, gradually bringing it back into business and recruiting the finest professors of various subjects from around the world. She created a college, yet no one other than the teaching staff knew who this woman was. She preferred to keep to herself and because of that there are many rumours, though none of them are true. Some even stretch as far to say that the woman was a werewolf and so could not bear to face full humans in case her savage side shone through. But the woman was simply shy. She preferred to work in the background and keep things running smoothly. And even half a decade after her death, the college stands strong and is one of the best in the world, bringing students in from all of the continents if they wish to join.
-----------------------------------
From the beginning of their lessons until the end of the day, the students are on the island most of the day. And once they have finished all of their lessons, they have three options. They can go to the island above and catch a few rays, they can head back to their dorms or some other part of the Institute, or they can leave the college for the mainland, wherever in the world they may want to go. And to get there, they have two options. They can head to the Floo Room and catch the next chimney home by grabbing a handful of floo powder and stepping into a grate, or they can head to the island above and apparate back home, if they're legally allowed to do so. And then they can spend their time at home and stay there. Of course, if they don't want to go home then there's always a bed empty for them in the dormitories somewhere. At the weekends, students can go wherever they want, too. They can even stay in the college campus if they really want to.
-----------------------------------
At AIM, we have something to suit everyone's needs. A variety of lessons which can set you on the career path you want. But how are you to know what it's like unless you actually take a look?
