Old University of Chicago
Since 1857
The University of Chicago, renamed the Old University of Chicago in 1890, was a university which operated in Chicago, Illinois from 1856 to 1886.
The school, founded by Baptist church leaders, was called the "University of Chicago" (or, interchangeably, "Chicago University"). After years of financial struggle, the university's campus was badly damaged by fire, the school was foreclosed on by its creditors, its classes ceased in 1886, and it no longer admitted students.
