Founded in 1925 by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, Mount St. Mary's College is an independent, Catholic, liberal arts college, primarily for women. The college has two campuses: the Chalon Campus in the Santa Monica Mountains of West Los Angeles and the Doheny Campus in downtown Los Angeles on the site of the historic Doheny estate. The Chalon Campus offers baccalaureate degree programs, including a Weekend College for working adults. Associate of arts and graduate degree programs are offered on the Doheny Campus.

Teacher preparation programs are available for undergraduate and graduate students interested in becoming teachers. Students may pursue education certificate and credential programs in early childhood, elementary, secondary, and special education. An administrative leadership credential program is available at the graduate level. Many graduate students choose to complete a masters degree in conjunction with their credential program.

Under the leadership of Sister Magdalen Coughlin and others, the college has become a national model of multicultural education. The Center of Cultural Fluency continues the college's tradition of commitment to inclusive education.
