Auburn University is continually changing to accommodate today's needs, while still respecting the traditions and spirit of Auburn. Auburn University was established in 1856 as the East Alabama Male College, 20 years after the city of Auburn's founding. After December of 1859, it was maintained by the Methodist Episcopal Church South. The citizens of Auburn, the college faculty and the Methodist Church were all advocates of the new college. In 1859, Auburn's patrons erected and equipped a four-story building at the cost of $1,100 and opened its doors on October 1 to 80 students, six faculty members and a preparatory enrollment of 100. Five students were graduated after the first year.
The main campus had an enrollment last year of 24,530. Auburn University offers degrees in 13 schools and colleges at the undergraduate, graduate and professional levels. Auburn University at Montgomery was established as a separately administered branch campus in 1967. The institution has developed rapidly, especially since moving to a 500-acre campus east of Montgomery in 1971. Current enrollment at AUM is about 5,000.
