(The current Students’ Union building is named in his honour). 1846 saw the foundation of the Female Training School which moved to Ripon in 1862. The college in York was described as St John’s College from the late 1890s
ork St John University has a tradition of welcoming international students. Around seven per cent of the student body is from overseas, with additional numbers taking a range of short courses on campus and with the delivery of provision through partners based overseas. There is a drive to build upon our international recruitment over the next three years.
