Claflin University is the premier institution in South Carolina 🧡🧡🧡

Claflin University is South Carolina’s oldest and first HBCU — and it continues to lead with visionary excellence.

In our “What HBCUs Are Known For” series, we’re proud to spotlight Claflin University for its powerful legacy, historic impact, and continued academic excellence.

Founded in 1869, Claflin holds a special place in HBCU history as South Carolina’s first and oldest HBCU. It has also been recognized as the No. 1 HBCU in South Carolina for 14 consecutive years, a reflection of its commitment to preparing students to become leaders, scholars, and changemakers.

At HBCU CONNECT, we created this series to highlight what makes every HBCU unique and to celebrate the excellence, pride, and legacy of our institutions.

Salute to Claflin University for continuing to set the standard.

What do you think Claflin University should always be known for?
