Saint Mary's College of Catbalogan (Philippines)

It is located at Del Rosario St., Catbalogan City, Samar. The school started as a parochial school in 1929. By 1950, the school received government recognition of its high school program and in 1992, it started to offer five undergraduate programs. SMCC currently provides Basic and Higher Education programs. College students can choose four-year courses in the areas of Business Administration, Teacher Education, and Computer Science. Senior High School students, on the other hand, can choose their strands from the Academic and the Technical-Vocational-Livelihood (TVL) tracks. Additionally, Saint Mary's College of Catbalogan has TESDA-accredited courses in Computer Hardware Servicing, Housekeeping, and Programming.[5] The students are called Marian students for the reason that they possessed the Marian-Ignacian identity values imitated from Most Venerable Mother Ignacia Del Espiritu Santo.

St. Mary's College of Catbalogan is a member of the Catholic Educational Association of the Philippines (CEAP).
