Penn Medical University
Penn Medical College was founded by Dr. Joseph S. Longshore in 1853, but the name was changed to Penn Medical University in 1854.

The school held classes in several locations over the years, including Franklin Hall (on Sixth Street below Arch Street), the Thirteenth and Arch Streets, then 419 Market Street. In 1857, it moved to Twelfth and Chestnut Streets, then three years later to 910 Arch Street. At the Arch Street home a dispensary was opened in 1860, and in 1862 a dental department was established. In 1874, the school moved to its final location at 1131 Brown Street. The school closed in 1881. In 1853 the school awarded the Honorary Doctor
