History
When Our Lady of Angels College opened its doors in September, 1965, the total enrollment was 115 students. Today, that number seems small, but the feat was enormous since the establishment of the College was the culmination of decades of planning by the Sisters of St. Francis of Philadelphia (www.osfphila.org). Over the years, the College continued to expand to meet the needs of our students, admitting men to all programs, building a Child Development Center, and creating new programs including six graduate programs. From that start of 115 students, the College now boasts more than 2,600 students and has more than 6,300 living alumni.
