A collegium ( pl.: collegia) or college was any association in ancient Rome that acted as a legal entity. Such associations could be civil or religious. The word collegium literally means "society", from collega ("colleague"). [1] . They functioned as social clubs or religious collectives whose members worked towards their shared interests.
The Roman Colleges, also referred to as the Pontifical Colleges in Rome, are institutions established and maintained in Rome for the education of future ecclesiastics of the Catholic Church. Traditionally many were for students of a particular nationality.
The Romans considered the college of pontiffs very ancient; it was also credited to the priest-king, who was Numa Pompilius. The original number of its members was five. It is believed that the first and chief pontiff was the king himself, only replaced in the republican times by pontifex maximus.
It was founded in 1551 as the Collegium Romanum (College of Rome) by St. Ignatius of Loyola and St. Francis Borgia and was constituted as a university by Pope Julius III. It received its present name as the result of the efforts of Pope Gregory XIII, who considerably expanded the institution in 1567.
This institution was called the Roman College and, in 1873, by the will of Pope Pius IX, took the name of the Pontifical Gregorian University. In 1928, Pope Pius XI wanted to associate the Pontifical Biblical Institute and the Pontifical Oriental Institute to the Gregorian University.
