Oregon’s Oldest Universities Merge | Portland News
Description
Two of Oregon’s oldest private universities, Willamette and Pacific, are officially merging—creating a powerhouse with over 6,000 students across four campuses. No closures planned, just smarter growth, stronger research, and expanded alumni networks to stay competitive. Regulatory approvals still needed, but a new name—possibly the University of the Northwest—is on the table. Full integration could take up to two years, but this historic shift promises big things for Oregon’s higher education future.
