The Sisters of Humility also founded Marycrest College in Davenport as the woman's division of St. Ambrose in 1939. By the 1950s it had become a separate institution, and it started admitting men in 1969. The school, however, started to decline in enrollment as well as financially. In 1990, Marycrest became affiliated with the Teikyo Yamanashi Education and Welfare Foundation of Japan and was renamed Teikyo Marycrest University. In 1996 the institution's name was changed to Marycrest International University in an attempt to reflect its global mission. However, enrollment continued to decline. financial difficulties persisted, and the school closed in 2002. The campus continues intact and in 2006 it became Marycrest Senior Campus, a residential facility for senior citizens. It has no affiliation with the diocese.
