Trocaire College

Trocaire College is a coeducational junior college specializing in health care training, located in Buffalo, New York. Enrollment is about 900.

The college was founded in 1958 by the Sisters of Mercy as Sancta Maria College, a sisters' college. In 1965, the college began admitting lay women, followed by men in 1972. The name was changed to Trocaire College in 1967, with the new naming coming from the Irish word for "mercy."

There are 18 Associate's degree programs and 11 certificate programs offered at Trocaire. In addition to health care, students can major in other career-oriented fields, including early childhood education. The college is home to the oldest private Associate's Degree in Nursing program in western New York, as well as the region's oldest evening nursing program.
