Snead State is the oldest college in the Alabama College System to award associate degrees. The school originated in 1898 when the Boaz Seminary was authorized by the Methodist Episcopal Church. The E.B.L. Elder family arrived in Boaz in June of 1899 and opened the seminary in their home in July with an enrollment of 70 pupils. The Seminary grew rapidly, and in 1906 its name was changed to the John H. Snead Seminary in honor of Mr. Snead, who contributed land, money, and leadership to the seminary. The Seminary remained one of Alabama's strong secondary schools for almost 25 years and graduated more than 1200 young men and women. Associate Degrees are awarded in Arts, Science, Applied Science and Occupational Technology as well as Certificates in 12 fields of study. Snead State is located in Boaz, Marshall County. Total enrollment is approximately 1700. Athletic scholarships are given in basketball, baseball and other sports and student housing is available for 74.
