Collegiate Albright Institute was founded in 1985 and renamed Albright College three years later. Union Seminary became Central Pennsylvania College, and in 1902, it merged with Albright College. In addition, Schuylkill College, formerly known as Schuylkill Seminary, merged with Albright College in 1928. Albright College moved from Myerstown, Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania to the Schuylkill College campus, which is Albright's current location, in foot of Mount Penn (Mount Penn) in the city of Reading.

The school is named after Pennsylvania-German Protestant preacher Jacob Albright, founder of the Evangelical United Brethren Church (later known as the Evangelical United Brethren Church). Born in 1759 in Douglass Township, Pennsylvania, (now Montgomery County) as Johannes Jacob Albrecht, his family changed his middle name to "Albright" after Jacob's death in 1808.
