In May 1904, at the Annual Meeting of The Methodist Episcopal Church held in Los Angeles, Lydia A. Trimble (Chinese name: 程吕底亚) of the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society called for the establishment of a women's university in Fuzhou. Lydia A. Trimble was sent to China as a missionary in 1890. After she found that only boys can receive formal education, she decided to start an educational institution for women.[4] Once this application was approved partly by the conference, a women's preparatory school was established without a certain place. A committee was formed by Lydia A. Trimble and two other women missionaries, with a bishop Dr. James W. Bashford (Chinese name: 柏锡福), who had served as president of Ohio Wesleyan University for many years, as the first chairman of the College Board of Directors.[5][6]

In May 1905, the Methodist Episcopal Church Congress in Shanghai decided to establish the Foochow College Preparatory of Foochow Woman's College. After two years, Anglo-Chinese Girls' School (Chinese: 华英女子学堂) was established in Fuzhou. In January 1908, the school was finally being able to start teaching, and Lydia A. Trimble was appointed as its first headmaster. It became the only women's university in southern China at that time.[7] In 1916, the school was renamed Hwa Nan College (Chinese: 华南女子大学). In 1922, the college was admitted by the University of the State of New York with a provisional charter.[1] In 1933, the college changed its name to Woman's College Of South China (Chinese: 华南女子文理学院), which was approved by the Chinese Ministry of Education the following year. In 1935, the college became one of the thirteen Christian high education colleges and universities in China, and was charged by the Board of Trustees in America (Chinese: 美国托事部). The college was moved to Nanping City in June 1938 due to Second Sino-Japanese War and moved back to Fuzhou City in 1946.[2][8] This move was led by the third principal, Lucy C. Wang (Chinese name: 王世静), who carried many books and supplies with the students by train and wagon.[4][8] The college was abolished in April 1951, as merged with Fukien Christian University to form Fuzhou University.[3]
