University of Alabama

Program Info

The University of Alabama is a large public flagship university located in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, a classic Southern college town along the Black Warrior River in the west-central part of the state. Tuscaloosa is roughly an hour southwest of Birmingham and offers the energy of a community deeply tied to its university, with a lively downtown, a strong game-day culture, and an affordable cost of living relative to many larger metro areas. The campus itself is known for its expansive, tree-lined grounds and historic brick architecture, set in a warm climate that supports year-round outdoor training and competition. As one of the South’s most recognizable universities, Alabama combines big-school resources and spirit with the close-knit feel of a town that revolves around campus life.
