• Nishi-Kyushu Line: Kami-Ainoura ⇄ Ainoura

Daigaku Station opened on 16 March 1991 as Daigaku-mae Station, an infill station on Matsuura Railway's Nishi-Kyūshū Line between Ainoura and Kami-Ainoura. It was renamed to its present name, Daigaku Station, on 3 October 1994. The station has the distinction of being the only railway station in Japan whose formal name is simply "University" (Daigaku).

Daigaku, along with Imafuku on the same line, has been promoted as a "good-omen" station (縁起駅). A station-name signboard reading "Pray for Pass — Daigaku Station" (祈合格 大学駅) is displayed at the platform together with a shrine altar enshrining a spirit divided from Iimori Shrine, and visitors come from inside and outside the prefecture to buy entrance tickets associating themselves with university admission; because the station itself is unstaffed, the tickets are sold at Matsuura Railway's staffed stations and by mail order, including special "Imafuku to Daigaku" travel tickets and 5-ticket entrance-ticket sets.
