Hwa Nan College, or Women's College of South China, was a Christian institution of higher education founded by the Methodist Episcopal Church (Chinese: 美以美会, known as卫理公会 after 1939). It is located on the mountainside of Cangqian Mountain (Chinese: 仓前山), now Cangshan District (Chinese: 仓山区), Fuzhou City, Fujian Province, China. From 1938 to 1946, the college was temporarily relocated to Nanping City, due to Second Sino-Japanese War. Now the college belongs to the Cangshan Campus of Fujian Normal University (Chinese: 福建师范大学).
