The College of Mount Saint Vincent is now the University of Mount Saint Vincent. The institution located on Riverdale Avenue in the Bronx, New York enrolls just over 2,800 students.
Mount Saint Vincent was founded as the Academy of Mount Saint Vincent in 1847 by the Sisters of Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul of New York. The Academy was located with the Motherhouse at McGowan’s Pass at the northeast corner of what is now Central Park. The campus moved to Riverdale, N.Y. overlooking the Hudson River in 1859. The institutional charter was amended in 1911 to change the name to the College of Mount Saint Vincent
