He belonged to a family of Scottish origin which had settled in Ireland during the Cromwellian period. His father was Edward Sterling. After studying for one year at the University of Glasgow, John Sterling in 1824 entered Trinity College, Cambridge, where he had for tutor Julius Charles Hare. At Cambridge he took a distinguished part in the debates of the union, and, became a member of the Cambridge Apostles, forming friendships with Frederick Denison Maurice and Richard Trench. He removed to Trinity Hall with the intention of graduating in law, but left the university without taking a degree. During the next four years he resided chiefly in London, employing himself actively in literature and making a number of literary friends. With Maurice he purchased the Athenaeum magazine in 1828 from James Silk Buckingham, but the enterprise was not a pecuniary success.
