History

The University of Regina, Regina, was founded in 1911 as Regina College by the Methodist Church (which would join other Protestant denominations in 1925 to become the United Church). Starting with only 27 students, Regina College developed into a junior college and in 1925 became affiliated with the University of Saskatchewan and began offering courses in arts and science. In 1934 it was transferred from United Church control to the University of Saskatchewan. In 1965 the college moved to southeastern Regina; it obtained status as an independent degree-granting university on 1 July 1974, when it became the University of Regina.
