McMaster University came about because of the outgrowth of instructive activities embraced by Baptists as ahead of schedule as the 1830s. It was established in 1881 as Toronto Baptist College. Canadian Senator William McMaster, the primary president of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, passed on assets to enrich a college, which was fused through a merger of Toronto Baptist College and Woodstock College, Woodstock, Ontario. In 1887 the Act to unite Toronto Baptist College and Woodstock College was conceded imperial consent, and McMaster University was formally incorporated. Woodstock College, Woodstock, and Moulton Ladies' College, Toronto, were kept up in close connection. The new college, housed in McMaster Hall in Toronto, was supported by the Baptist Convention of Ontario and Quebec as a partisan undergrad organization for its pastorate and followers.

As the college developed, McMaster Hall began to wind up stuffed. The recommendation to move the college to Hamilton was first raised by an understudy and Hamilton local in 1909, despite the fact that the proposition was not genuinely considered by the college until two years later.

Since denominational organizations couldn't get open finances, the Baptist Convention of Ontario and Quebec chose to rearrange the college, making two unified schools. Expressions of the human experience and godliness projects were reconstituted as University College and science was revamped under the recently consolidated Hamilton College as a different division equipped for getting common grants.
