It started as the La Trinidad Farm School, which was elevated to Trinidad Agricultural School (TAS) in 1920. The school reopened after World War II and became the La Trinidad Agricultural High School. Four months later, it was nationalized and renamed as the Mountain National Agricultural School (MNAS). It was soon converted into the Mountain National College (MNAC), Mountain Agricultural College (MAC), and Mountain State Agricultural College (MSAC) in 1969 through Republic Act 5923.[1][4]
On January 12, 1986, the school was converted into a chartered state university by virtue of Presidential Decree 2010.[2][1]
