The coat of arms of the Transylvanian Saxon University

The Transylvanian Saxon University (Latin: Universitas Saxonum, German: Nationsuniversität or Sächsische Nationsuniversität, Romanian: Universitatea Națiunii Săsești, Hungarian: Szász Nemzeti Egyetem) was an official governing body of the Transylvanian Saxon community in Transylvania (Romanian: Transilvania, German: Siebenbürgen) during the Late Middle Ages up until the late Modern Age.[1] The Saxon University was led by the Saxon Count (Latin: Comes Saxonum, Romanian: Comesul sas or Contele sas).[2]

The Saxon University (Romanian: Universitatea săsească) was constituted at the royal order of Hungarian King Matthias Corvinus in 1486.[3][4] From 1486 up until 1876, the Saxon University worked as a self-governing (or autonomous) administrative body of the Saxon ethnicity in the Principality of Transylvania and then in the Grand Principality of Transylvania (from 1765 onwards). From 1876 up until the year of its dissolution in 1937, the Saxon University became and functioned as a foundation of the Transylvanian Saxons, thereby coordinating the activity of their schools and Evangelical Lutheran churches (i.e. subordinated to the Evangelical Church of the Augsburg Confession) in the process.
