Southern Union State Community College, established in 1922, is a public, two-year institution located in Wadley, Alabama. It serves students from a mainly rural setting amidst the quiet backdrop of eastern Alabama, roughly 90 miles from the metropolitan hub of Birmingham. The college features a broad range of academic programs with a particular emphasis on health sciences, including nursing and allied health, as well as technical and industrial programs designed to cater to both recent high school graduates and adult learners. With an open admissions policy, Southern Union State Community College is accessible to a wide array of students seeking post-secondary education. The campus, while not known for a specific architectural style, provides limited student housing options. Majors in business, liberal arts, and sciences are also popular among the student body. Southern Union does not have a particular renown for athletics and, as such, no specific athletic programs are highlighted here.

Southern Union State Community College has an open admission policy which permits enrollment by any high school graduate or GED holding student.  2,340 students are enrolled on a full time basis, and 2,046 attend part time. In-state tuition for 2022/2023, excluding room and board, is $3,750 plus fees of $1,170.
