Nova Scotia Agricultural College – NSAC Truro was officially founded February 14, 1905 by the merger of The School of Agriculture (1885–1905) in Truro and The School of Horticulture (1893–1905) in Wolfville. NSAC was located on the provincial demonstration farm in Bible Hill which has grown over the years to a total area of 442 hectares (1122 acres). It is located along a bluff overlooking the Salmon River.

Nova Scotia Agricultural College – NSAC Truro is a Canadian university college located in Bible Hill, Nova Scotia, a village near the town of Truro. In the early years the college focused on educating farmers in aspects of field and animal husbandry. These early graduates often went on to pursue a university degree, usually from Macdonald College at McGill University or the Ontario Agricultural College in Guelph, Ontario. A disastrous fire in 1946 destroyed the science building and a temporary campus was set up in former World War II military hospitals in Debert. This temporary campus served students until the fall of 1953 when the new science building, now known as the Harlow Institute, was opened on the Bible Hill campus.

Nova Scotia Agricultural College – NSAC Truro entered a new era in 1980 after the Nova Scotia government passed legislation authorizing the institution to grant undergraduate B.Sc. (Agr.) degrees.

An agreement was also signed with Dalhousie to provide MSc degrees in 1996. NSAC grants its own technology diplomas for the 2-year programs and the institution remains an independent post-secondary research and education facility administered by the Nova Scotia Department of Agriculture. Nova Scotia Agricultural College has entered into discussions towards a merger with Dalhousie University for the incoming class of Fall, 2012.
