Formerly called | U4 |
The Maple League of Universities, previously known as the U4, is an association of four universities in eastern Canada. The four member schools, Acadia University, Bishop's University, Mount Allison University, and St. Francis Xavier University, are all small, residential, primarily undergraduate liberal arts institutions.
The four member universities of the Maple League are all primarily undergraduate institutions and located in Eastern Canada: one in Quebec, one in New Brunswick, and two in Nova Scotia. All were established in the early-mid 1800s. [2]
| University | Province | Location | Established |
|---|---|---|---|
| Acadia University | Nova Scotia | Wolfville | 1838 |
| Bishop's University | Quebec | Sherbrooke | 1843 |
| Mount Allison University | New Brunswick | Sackville | 1839 |
| St. Francis Xavier University | Nova Scotia | Antigonish | 1853 |
The Maple League was founded in May 2013 as the U4, and adopted its current name in November 2016. The name "Maple League" was inspired by the Ivy League in the United States. [3] [4]
