Averett University Revenue and Competitors

We invite you to learn more about our vibrant academic community. More than 2,700 students from 23 states and 17 countries make Averett their university of choice. Our students study not only on our main campus in Danville, Va. but also in more than 11 classroom locations statewide. We'd like for you to be a part of Averett. Join us for our Concert, Arts and Lecture Series, root for the Cougars in NCAA competition or enjoy lunch in our Dining Hall. We look forward to meeting you. Founded in 1859, Averett has a long history preparing women and men to be leaders in their careers and in their communities. Averett began as a school for young women at a time when educating women was not a popular idea. That spirit of innovation has continued as we were among the first in Virginia to create an accelerated program for working adults and are among the select few in the nation to offer bachelor's degrees in aeronautics and equestrian studies. This history of Averett offers a glimpse of where we have been and perhaps a hint of where we are going. If you are an Averett graduate, you will likely recognize "your" Averett somewhere in these pages. Take this opportunity to rekindle your link to your alma mater. We hope you enjoy your journey.
