St Xavier's College, Ranchi, in the Indian state of Jharkhand, was founded in 1944 by the Ranchi Province of the Society of Jesus, a Catholic religious order that traces its origin to St. Ignatius Loyola in 1540.

St. Xavier's College, a Minority Educational Institution, was first affiliated to Patna University, then from 1950-1960 was under Bihar University.
