History
The school traces its roots with the establishment of the St. Dominic Medical Center (SDMC) in 1991 by founders Don Gregorio and Doña Dominga Andaman. In 2003, 12 years after the realization of the hospital in Cavite, a school named St. Dominic College of Arts & Sciences was added to the hospital.
Initially offering programs in Caregiving and BS Nursing in collaboration with the SDMC, St. Dominic has evolved into a full-fledged collegiate institution with four schools: School of Health Science Professions (SHSP), School of Arts, Sciences & Education (SASE), School of International Hospitality & Tourism Management (SIHTM), and School of Business & Computer Studies (SBCS).
In 2009, St. Dominic College of Arts & Sciences was officially renamed St. Dominic College of Asia.
