On 27 March 1977, Bago Division Regional College was opened. It was upgraded to Bago College 30 November 1981, and to Bago Degree College and on 17 August 1992.[2] On 13 June 2011, the college was upgraded into a university, becoming Bago University.[2]
As a response to the violent suppression of the Letpadan student strike in 2015, the rector of Bago University imposed a ban on students who attempted to take the exam while wearing white and black wristbands in protest.[4] In the aftermath of the 2021 Myanmar coup d'état, the teachers, professors, and staff of Bago University organized a red ribbon campaign, and joined the Civil Disobedience Movement on February 5 to express their opposition to the military coup and to show their commitment to accepting only a government elected by the people.[5]
