Abstract

Colleges are listed in chronological order by year of the first B.A. degree granted. The two years that immediately follow are for when college-level instruction began and for when chartered as a college. Current names are used for all who survive; most recent names for those who do not. Bolded names in brackets are those as of 1828. Institutions named universities are so designated in abbreviated form; all others are known as colleges, although the word is omitted in this list.
