The college was founded in 1893 as the Woman's College of Frederick by the Potomac Synod of the Reformed Church of the United States. In 1897, the college received a 28-acre tract of land for its campus from Margaret Scholl Hood . On January 18, 1913, Margaret Hood's will was filed for probate. In the will, she bequest $30,000 to the Woman's College of Frederick provided that the college changed its name to "Hood College" within 12 months. Part of this bequest was used to fund the 1914 construction of Alumnae Hall. Today, Alumnae remains the oldest building on the college's campus and serves as the central location for the college's administration. [1]
Hood was originally a women-only college and did not admit men until 1971 as commuter students. Men began to be admitted on a residential basis in 2003, making the college co-educational and increasing the numbers of prospective students. [1]
