St. Jude College, a non sectarian institution was established in honor of St. Jude Thaddeus, the Apostle and Patron Saint of the Hopeful and the embodiment of the true Christian spirit. Through its allied health services, it started as a School of Nursing and St. Jude Maternity Clinic in 1950. Face with the growing health needs of the community and the breakthroughs and advances in allied medical sciences, the founders, Dr. Ramon D. Atienza, Jr. and wife, Dr. Felicidad Calip-Atienza, Expanded the Maternity Clinic from a two-storey building to a five-storey building with a 120-bed capacity. Later, they built an eight-storey building to house the growing School of Nursing. The two edifices were inaugurated on the feast day of St. Jude Thaddeus on October 28, 1968. As a result, the Maternity Clinic was elevated to the status of a College for consistently producing outstanding students and exemplary topnotchers in the licensure or board examinations since 1971.

Graduate courses such as Midwifery, BS in Civil Engineering, BS in Industrial Engineering, Associate in Tourism and BS in Hotel and Restaurant Management were likewise granted their respective government permits in the late 80s.
