History
Stetson University was founded in 1883. Our 175-acre DeLand campus is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and our turn-of-the-century buildings have been modernized and updated without losing their charm. The latest additions to the DeLand campus (2008-2009 academic year) are the following construction projects totaling $17 million: Science Center addition to the existing Sage Hall; Mary B. McMahan Hall, an addition to the School of Music's Presser Hall; the Homer and Dolly Hand Art Center; and the Marshall and Vera Lea Rinker Environmental Learning Center. Within the past two years, a softball training facility was added at Patricia Wilson Field; five fraternity houses were renovated; and six residential halls were built, five of which feature apartment-style living.

Faculty
Stetson's DeLand campus has 195 full-time faculty members, 95 percent of whom hold Ph.D. or equivalent degrees and who teach all undergraduate classes. Our student/faculty ratio is 11-to-1.

Our more than 2,200 undergraduates come from 37 states and 29 foreign countries (2008-2009 academic year). 57 percent of our students are female and 43 percent are male.

Degrees
There are more than 60 majors and minors leading to the Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Music, Bachelor of Music Education or Bachelor of Business Administration degrees.
