The University was established on March 15, 1827, when King's College in York (Toronto) was granted its Royal Charter; King's College became the University of Toronto in 1849. The University today is composed of seven federated colleges at its main campus in downtown Toronto: University College (est. 1853); the University of St. Michael's College (est. 1852, affiliated with UofT 1881, full federation 1910); Victoria College (est. 1836, federated 1892); Trinity College (est. 1851, federated 1904); New College (est. 1962); Innis College (est. 1964); and Woodsworth College (est. 1974).
In 1965, the University expanded into a new campus in Scarborough, a suburb of Toronto. In 1967, with the establishment of Erindale College, a third campus was added in Mississauga, also a Toronto suburb.
