Samuel A. Mulledy (March 27, 1811 – January 8, 1866) was an American Catholic priest and Jesuit who served as President of Georgetown College in 1825. Born in Virginia, he was the brother of Thomas F. Mulledy, who was a prominent 19th-century Jesuit in the United States and who was also president of Georgetown. As a student at Georgetown, Samuel was one of the founding members of the Philodemic Society, and proved to be a distinguished student, which resulted in his being sent to Rome to complete his higher education and be ordained to the priesthood. Upon his return to the United States, he was named president of Georgetown, but sought to be relieved of the position after just several months.
