ABOUT US
Augustana University is a private, Lutheran university in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, United States. The largest private university in the state,[8] the institution derives its name from the Confessio Augustana, or Augsburg Confession, a foundational document of Lutheranism. Students, alumni, friends, employees, and those who know the college casually refer to it as "Augie." Prior to September 2015, the university was known as Augustana College.
​
The university identifies 1860 as the year of its founding, the same as its Rock Island, Illinois Swedish-heritage sister school, Augustana College. It celebrated its sesquicentennial during the 2010–2011 academic year.
