A medical school operated in conjunction with St. Vincent Charity Hospital opened in 1864 but closed in 1870 when the Wooster (Ohio) University opened a medical school in Cleveland. The Wooster school merged with the Medical Department of Western Reserve College (Cleveland Medical College) in 1881. A second, independent, Wooster Medical Department was established the year the first one merged with Western Reserve and lasted until 1896. Ohio Wesleyan University (Delaware, Ohio) established a medical department in Cleveland in 1896. In 1910 this school was merged with the Medical Department of Western Reserve. Since that time, Cleveland has had only the one medical school.
