Verzlunarskóli Íslands (English: The Commercial College of Iceland) is an Icelandic gymnasium. It was founded in 1905 and is the oldest private school in Iceland. The school is located in Reykjavík and has more than 1200 students.
In the first years of the school it had about 60-70 students but the number has grown steadily ever since. The school's first graduation was in 1945. Its original objectives have changed, although it still teaches the basics in commercial education such as accounting and economics.
