Notre Dame of Maryland University is an independent, Catholic-affiliated, liberal arts college located within the Archdiocese of Baltimore in Baltimore, Maryland, United States. It contains a Women's College and part-time coeducational degree programs for women and men.
The Roman Catholic academic/educational religious order of the School Sisters of Notre Dame founded the school in 1873. It originally established and named the "Notre Dame of Maryland Preparatory School and Collegiate Institute". The N.D.M.U. now is one of the oldest institutions of higher education for women in the United States.
Originally called "Notre Dame of Maryland Preparatory School and Collegiate Institute" since its founding in 1873, (today's equivalent of elementary, middle, and high schools) — the College of Notre Dame of Maryland was raised to the level of a four-year college for under-graduates in 1895. The lower preparatory school (high school in modern terminology) moved from CND's North Charles Street location to its current campus further north in suburban Baltimore County at the county seat of Towson in 1960, and is now known as "Notre Dame Preparatory School (or "Notre Dame Prep" for short).
In 1896, the Collegiate Institute became the first four-year Roman Catholic college for women in the United States.
