History

Founded in 1883 by Patrick Roger Cleary as the "Cleary School of Penmanship", it was incorporated in 1891 as "Cleary Business College". In 1933 the Cleary family turned the physical assets of the college over to a Board of Trustees, establishing Cleary College as an independent non-profit institution. The college moved to the 2170 Washtenaw Ave. site in 1960. A branch college was opened in Livingston County in 1979. By 1982 the combined campuses served over one thousand students. " In 2002 it changed its name once again to Cleary University.


The Cleary College building at 2170 Washtenaw Ave was torn down in 2000. It was awarded a Michigan Historical Marker (site S0553) in 1983.
