The University of Rio Grande, located in the rural village of Rio Grande in southeastern Ohio, is a comprehensive institution operating through a unique partnership between a private foundation and a public community college. The 190-acre main campus combines traditional college facilities with technical education buildings, reflecting its dual mission as both a four-year private university and a two-year community college. Founded in 1876 as Rio Grande College, the institution maintains programs in education, nursing, and business, while also offering associate degrees in technical and career-focused fields. Campus housing accommodates residential students in several dormitories, and the university competes in the NAIA's River States Conference as the RedStorm, with notable programs in men's and women's basketball.
