Y'all, I've been trying to make a list of all the universities that pique my interest, and Troy State is one of those, but honestly got a little lost on the map here - I can't seem to pin down its location. Could someone enlighten me? Cheers!
Hello! I'd be happy to assist with your inquiry. Troy University, formerly known as Troy State University, is in fact located in the city of Troy, Alabama. It's right in the southeastern region of the state.
If you're looking at a map, it's less than an hour's drive south of Montgomery, the state's capital, making it quite accessible. Its geography is likely typical of what you'd expect from the Southeastern U.S. - relatively flat with warmer weather and humidity. The town of Troy itself has a smaller, college-town vibe with plenty of southern charm.
Remember, a university's surroundings can greatly influence your college experience, so I recommend researching more about Troy's campus and the local area if you're seriously considering attending. Perhaps even plan a visit if possible! I hope this gives you a clearer idea of where Troy University is geographically situated. Best of luck with your university search.
