Chowan University is a four-year co-education intuition. It is the second oldest of North Carolina's seven

Baptist Colleges. Chowan opened in 1848 as a four year college for women, Chowan Baptist Female institute. It was renamed Chowan College in 1910, admitted male students in 1931, and established itself as one of the leading junior colleges in the South in 1937. In 1992 the college returned to four year status. In April of 2006 Chowan President, Dr. M. Christopher White announced the changing of the institutions name from Chowan College to Chowan University. The University fulfills its mission with a careful blend of both liberal arts and professional courses. Recognizing that such a blend of knowledge and experience is particularly suited to the needs of contemporary society. Chowan takes as priority the need to connect general education with specialized education, theoretical learning with practical learning, and intellectual skills with vocational skills. Set amid 300 acres of woodlands embracing beautiful Lake Vann, Chowan’s main entrance leads gracefully around a college green to an antebellum mansion known as the McDowell Columns Building. Sixteen major buildings of contemporary design provide air-conditioned residence, academic and recreational facilities. The small-town university campus attracts students from at least twenty seven states and several countries each year. The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools fully accredits Chowan University to offer the bachelor’s degree.

Chowan University stands in the old

Albemarle region of North Carolina

between the Roanoke and Chowan Rivers

in the northeast corner of the state. The

Murfreesboro area was first settled during

the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries,

when the principal inhabitants were

several Indian Tribes such as the

Chowanokes. Today, the stately old

homes seem to whisper of the storied

colonial and antebellum days.

Murfreesboro is located approximately 60

miles from Norfolk, Virginia and 120 miles

from Raleigh, North Carolina.

Murfreesboro is the location of the

boyhood home of Dr. Walter Reed,

discoverer of the cure for yellow fever,

and home to Richard Jordan Gatling, the

inventor of the Gatling Gun. Tours and

special events are offered throughout the

year by local groups.
