Description

Tuskegee University is one of the most notable historically black colleges in the country. Full of rich tradition and located in Tuskegee, Alabama, the university’s campus has been designated a National Historic Landmark.

A solid liberal arts education is offered as the basis for all majors, but the emphasis of study is on the sciences, business and engineering. Notably, Tuskegee is the number one producer of black aerospace engineers in the nation.

Tuskegee University is a member of the NCAA and most major sports are offered (football fans will be especially pleased at Tuskegee University’s record). The Golden Tigers and Tigerettes are part of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.

Tuskegee University is a private institution and, as such, no difference is made between in-state and out-of-state tuition. Financial aid is available to eligible students.
