History
Huston-Tillotson College is a four-year, private, independent, coed, liberal arts college affiliated with both the United Church of Christ and the United Methodist Church. The College displays its joint heritage with buildings named after representatives from each denomination. The former Tillotson College was affiliated with the United Church of Christ, while the former Samuel Huston College was affiliated with the United Methodist Church.
Founded as Tillotson College in 1875, the school was chartered as Tillotson Collegiate and Normal Institute in 1877, and then renamed Tillotson College in 1897. Samuel Huston College was founded in 1876. Its name changed to West Texas Conference School in 1878 and then it was renamed Samuel Houston College in 1890. Tillotson College and Samuel Houston College merged in 1952 to form Huston-Tillotson College.
One of the missions of the College is to provide experiences and services to a diverse, multicultural, and international student body. Huston-Tillotson is committed to the historic traditions of its founders and dedicated to providing the necessary skills, knowledge, experiences and attitudes essential for success in the twenty-first century.
