Augustana University
Augustana University, founded in 1860 and affiliated with the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, is consistently ranked among the top regional liberal arts universities in the Midwest, and its Sioux Falls, South Dakota location gives students access to the state's largest city and its concentration of financial and healthcare industry employers. The university's business and pre-health programs have built solid reputations, and Augustana's continued Lutheran affiliation shapes aspects of its institutional mission even as the broader student body includes students from diverse religious backgrounds. Augustana's relatively selective admissions profile and its combination of liberal arts breadth with genuine professional program strength have made it the leading private university in South Dakota, distinguished from the state's larger public institutions by its smaller, more personalized scale. The university's combination of its Lutheran heritage, its Sioux Falls location, and its solid business and health sciences programs has made Augustana a distinctive private university choice within South Dakota's higher education landscape.
VS
South Dakota State University
South Dakota State University, founded in 1881 as the state's land-grant institution, is the largest university in South Dakota, and its agricultural and biological sciences programs reflect its founding mission serving the state's substantial farming and ranching economy. The university's pharmacy program is one of the largest in the region, and SDSU's engineering and nursing programs have grown substantially, broadening the university's offerings well beyond its founding-era agricultural focus into a comprehensive research university. SDSU's Jackrabbits athletic programs, competing at the FCS football level, have built a strong regional following, and the university's Brookings campus serves as the primary public research university for the state's eastern agricultural region. The university's combination of genuine land-grant agricultural research strength and its status as South Dakota's largest university has made SDSU central to the state's higher education system and its agricultural economy.
