Not THAT Transylvania
Our Transylvania is a friendly, top-notch liberal arts college located in Kentucky's beautiful Bluegrass region—not the region of dark castles and vampires in Romania. Even so, we have fun with our name.
Transylvania is a Latin word meaning "across the woods." The heavily forested territory of western Virginia that became Kentucky in 1792 was originally called Transylvania, and it became our name when the college was founded in 1780.
Our nickname is Transy, which reflects the congenial spirit of our campus.
