Founded in 1822, Athens State University is Alabama’s oldest continuously operating institution of higher learning in the state educational system. Athens State is one of only a few "upper division" universities in the entire country, meaning we serve primarily junior/senior transfer students and graduate students — individuals who are trying to balance the pursuit of a degree with work and family
