Miriam College began in 1926 when the Archbishop of Manila requested the Sisters of the Maryknoll Congregation based in New York, USA to establish a teacher-training school for young, Catholic, Filipino women. An old Augustinian Convent in Malabon, Rizal was initially converted into the Malabon Normal School. The school transferred sites several times until finally in 1952, with its name changed into Maryknoll College, it laid down its permanent roots in Diliman, Quezon City. ^[1]

Maryknoll College expanded its programs from training teachers to becoming a liberal arts college that formed women leaders. After Vatican II, the Maryknoll congregation decided to focus their efforts on their missionary work worldwide. In 1977, the ownership and management of the school was turned over to lay administrators. In accordance with this agreement, the school was re-named Miriam College in 1989. ^[1]
