In 1954, the Sisters of Mercy, whose Motherhouse was in New Hampshire, came to Swampscott, Massachusetts and purchased six acres of property and the mansion known as White Court from Timothy Falvey. White Court had received some national attention when, in 1925, President Calvin Coolidge used it as the summer White House. After the property was acquired by the Sisters of Mercy, the property was renamed Marian Court in honor of the Marian Year, proclaimed by Pope Pius XII in 1954.

From its beginning, Marian Court was a Catholic institution committed to preparing students for careers and further education. The College today offers degree programs in business administration, criminal justice, liberal studies, and paralegal studies to both men and women.
