Alabama State University (ASU) is a public historically Black university (HBCU) in Montgomery, Alabama. It traces its origins to the years after the Civil War, when nine freed slaves opened a school for African Americans, and it has more than 159 years of history. ASU is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) to award bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees.

Its academic offer ranges from its long-standing teacher education programmes to STEM, social work, business and creative fields, taught in small classes with laboratory work and field experience. Students can apply for undergraduate or graduate study, and the online Global Campus offers ASU programmes at a distance.

The university welcomes more than 100 international students each year and offers them visa guidance and programmes to help them settle in. The campus covers 172 acres, more than 2,200 students live in residence halls for first-year and upper-class students, and new halls open in 2026-27. Campus life includes Greek organisations of the National Pan-Hellenic Council and NCAA Division I athletics in the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC).
