Memorial University College was founded to honour the sacrifices of the past with the promise of a brighter tomorrow.

The college opened its doors in 1925 to a class of 57 students. A humble beginning. But a beginning with boundless ambition.

In 2025, having grown to become one of Canada’s top comprehensive universities, Memorial University celebrated its 100th anniversary.

Take some time to explore how we celebrated our centennial and learn how the promise of our past continues to inform us as we look to the horizon.
