This article is about Maryville University in St. Louis, Missouri. For Maryville College in Maryville, Tennessee, see Maryville College.

Maryville University (Maryville University of St. Louis) was founded in 1872 by the Religious of the Sacred Heart, a Roman Catholic order established in France by women dedicated to excellence in education.

History

One of the oldest private institutions in the St. Louis, Missouri region, Maryville was originally an academy for young women, before becoming a four-year college in 1923 and a university in 1991. In 1968, a watershed year at Maryville, the University became a co-educational institution. In 1972, Maryville’s Centennial year, ownership of the college was transferred from the Religious of the Sacred Heart to a lay board of trustees.

The institution's visionary grasp of the growth potential of West St. Louis County, Missouri, sparked its purchase in the late 1950s of 290 acres (1.2 km²) of land adjacent to U.S. Highway 40, St. Louis' main thoroughfare. The dedication of the new campus on this site in 1961 marked the beginning of Maryville's mission as a community-oriented liberal arts institution. Prior to 1961, Maryville was located in south St. Louis city on Meramec Avenue. The facility was taken over by the Midwest Province of the Augustinian Fathers who established Augustinian Academy, a college prep school for boys. In 1981, Maryville made history by launching Weekend College. For the first time, St. Louis-area working adults could complete entire degree programs solely on the weekends.

More construction was dedicated in 1986 with the addition of the library building, an academic link building with and auditorium style class room, and an additional dormitory. Construction was completed around 1988. A significant amount of construction was dedicated in 1997 with the construction of the new Donius University Center completed in 2001, the opening of the new theatre auditorium in 2002, and apartment style dorms in 2003. An additional apartment building and the new Buder Family Commons was completed in mid 2006 in time for the start of the fall semester.
