Mundelein College was a private, independent, Roman Catholic women's college in Chicago, Illinois. Located on the edge of the Rogers Park and Edgewater neighborhoods on the far north side of the city, Mundelein College was founded and administered by the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In 1991, Mundelein became an affiliated college of Loyola University Chicago. It has since become completely incorporated.
The 14-story Mundelein College Skyscraper Building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980, and was designated a Chicago Landmark in 2007. The building still stands today overlooking Sheridan Road and is home to Loyola's Mundelein Center for Fine and Performing Arts.
