The university puts a heavy emphasis on international programs, and prides itself in supporting military students. About an hour south of Montgomery, the city of Troy is a small town, and the university is the pride and joy of the community.

The neighborhoods to the west and the southeast of campus offer the most convenient access to the university’s major buildings.
