Since our humble inception in the late 1940s, Stevenson University has continually evolved to meet the needs of students, gradually expanding both our physical presence and academic offerings. Here is a sampling of SU's rich history.
1947-Villa Julie College is founded by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur at "Seven Oaks," an 80-acre estate in Greenspring Valley, formerly the home of the George Carrell Jenkins family. The College opens its doors on October 1, specializing in medical-secretarial training.
2008-On June 11, the Board of Trustees voted to change the name of Villa Julie College to Stevenson University.
The name Stevenson University is chosen for its perceptions of tradition, history, and academic quality-three hallmarks of the Villa Julie spirit. The name also maintains a geographical connection to the founding location of Villa Julie in Stevenson, Md. The Villa Julie name endures as the Villa Julie College of Arts and Sciences. With this change, the original campus in Stevenson is now referred to as the Greenspring Campus.
On the Owings Mills campus, the School of Business and Leadership opens to students in August. Housing the Divisions of Business and Legal Studies and Information Technology, the School joins the School of Graduate and Professional Studies as the second established within the new University structure. The 60,000-square-foot building offers cutting-edge classroom technology and a Mock Trial Courtroom.
2021-After a decade of play and competition, the Mustang Stadium gets new artificial turn installed in June and July, while the university prepares Owings Mills East—the university’s new athletic hub for NCAA D3, club, and intramural sports—for opening in Spring 2022.
