5 About Anderson University History Anderson University traces its origin to one of the first institutions of higher learning for women in the United States, founded in The original school was forced to close during the Civil War and did not reopen; but in time a new generation carried on what had been begun at that institution. A group of public-spirited citizens, desirous of having an institution of higher learning in Anderson, offered 32 acres of land and $100,000 to the South Carolina Baptist Convention in In 1912, the College opened its doors and operated as a four-year college for women until 1930, when it became coeducational. What we know as Anderson University has throughout its history adapted to the educational needs of South Carolinians and those outside the State seeking a great education in a Christian environment. In 2005, the school officially became Anderson University as it added graduate programs and reorganized into colleges.

The 86,000-square-foot facility will open in the fall of Today, more than 3,100 students enjoy a high-quality education in more than 50 fields of study. Anderson University s scenic campus, located in the historic district of Anderson, South Carolina, benefits from its proximity to the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the vibrant city of Greenville, South Carolina. Anderson s campus has recently grown from its original 68 acres to more than 270 acres, including six new major building projects that have been completed within the past four years.
