Medina College-Ozamiz

Medina College-Ozamiz, formerly Medina School of Midwifery, is a private, non-sectarian college in Ozamiz City, Philippines under Medina College Inc., which is deemed to be the first private midwifery school in Ozamiz. Much like its sister colleges in Pagadian and Ipil, which were founded some years later, the school is mainly concentrated in accommodating nursing students. Other academic programs, including engineering, criminology, arts and sciences, management and accountancy, are also offered.

The college is directed at Filipino families who find it hard to break through financial barriers and send off their children for tertiary education.
