About this School
Western Oregon University, located in Monmouth, Oregon, USA, was established in 1856 by Oregon pioneers as "Monmouth University", a private college, and later merged with another private institution to become "Christian College." It became a state college called "Oregon State Normal School" in 1882. Subsequent names include "Oregon Normal School", "Oregon College of Education", "Western Oregon State College" and currently, "Western Oregon University" in 1997. Enrollment is approximately 5,000 students. Western Oregon University offers associate's degrees (AA), bachelor's degrees (BA, BS, BMus, and BFA) through its two colleges: the College of Education and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences; additionally, master's degrees are available in Education (MAT and MSEd) and Music (MM).
