The University of South Carolina Aiken was chartered under authority granted by the General Assembly of South Carolina and the Aiken County Commission for Higher Education in 1961 after entering into an agreement with the University of South Carolina to establish a two-year center in Aiken. A small cadre of faculty and staff were assigned the mission of establishing a college community with acceptable operations and standards. The Aiken Center opened its doors to 139 students in September 1961. Temporarily housed in Banksia, a renovated mansion in the City of Aiken, the Center consisted of three full-time faculty members (one of whom served as Director of the Center) and one secretary. Initially, the school offered only freshman and sophomore courses but throughout the sixties the size and reputation of the Center grew as word of its excellence spread among its “The Fountain” in the middle of USC Aiken’s campus serves as a symbol of the constituents.

Augusta College (Augusta State University) applied and was accepted in November 1990, with the effective date of membership on July 1, 1991. With the addition of Augusta College, the Peach Belt Conference had four members each in Georgia and South Carolina. Another college joined the Peach Belt Clayton College & Conference on July 1, 1992, when Pembroke State University (UNC Pembroke) University of State University officially became a member.

The conference expanded to 12 members with the addition of the University of North Florida on July 1, 1997. Former Augusta College basketball coach and athletic director Marvin Vanover was named interim commissioner in April 1990, and served in that capacity until his appointment as the conference’s first full-time commissioner in July 1991. The conference has established an office in Augusta, GA, which houses the commissioner and his staff. The conference conducts championships in 12 sports.
