ABOUT FMU:
The University traces its origins back to 1879, to the Florida Baptist Institute in Live Oak, Florida, and to the Florida Baptist Academy, founded in Jacksonville in 1892. Decades later, after a relocation to St. Augustine, a merger of the two schools, several name changes, and expansion to a four-year academic program, the institution’s charter was amended, and the name Florida Memorial College was adopted in 1963. The College relocated to Miami, Florida, its permanent home, in 1968, and is the only historically Black college in the southern region of the state. In December 2004, again, the institution’s charter was amended, and the name Florida Memorial University was adopted.
