Following Trocaire College's failed acquisition of its neighboring Buffalo private school, Medaille University is closing its doors, displacing around 1,600 students.
Despite selling six properties to Trocaire College worth nearly $2 million, Medaille University will not be acquired after all, placing its 148-year-old legacy in limbo.
Citing pandemic issues and poor enrollment numbers, Buffalo-based Medaille University marks another private school in the Northeast too financially strapped to continue operations. Instead of closing, however, they're merging.
