History

The birth of Medina College-Pagadian dates back more than three decades after June 1963 when Dr. Rico Macan Medina, Sr. and his wife, Dr. Beatriz Crisostomo Medina, found the main campus and eventually, the first private midwifery school in Ozamiz City.[4] This continuous progress did not only end up to just having more constructions and medical establishments in the main campus, but also to the extremes of having a new campus built in Misamis Occidental in 1983, and later in Barangay Bulatoc, Pagadian City, Zamboanga Del Sur in 1999.

The school recorded its highest number of enrollment in June 2005. After the birth of JHSCS or Josefina H. Cerilles State College and Mendero College, the enrollments started to decline until this year.
