Ottumwa Heights College

Ottumwa Heights College was a liberal arts women's college based in Ottumwa, Iowa. The school was affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church and was operated by the Sisters of Humility of Mary.

The institution was founded in 1864 as the Visitation Academy. In 1925, it was renamed the St. Joseph Academy. It received its first collegiate accreditation in 1928 and became known as the St. Joseph Junior College, taking its final name in 1930.

Ottumwa Heights merged with Indian Hills Community College in 1979 and was deemed officially inactive in 1980. Since 1981, the new IHCC campus has been located at the 126-acre (0.51 km2) former Ottumwa Heights campus.
