College just isn't the same everywhere.
You won't find the sophisticated city of Boston, with its 250,000 other college students, everywhere. You won't find a 17-acre campus surrounded by a world-class medical center and two major art museums everywhere. You won't find Fenway Park just down the street everywhere.
We know you have lots of choices when deciding among academic institutions. But here are a few more good reasons why Emmanuel College could be the right place for you:
Enjoy the best of all worlds.
The excitement and vibrancy of downtown Boston lies right outside our gates. And a close community of educators and students—working together to enrich the world and each other—lies inside our gates. It's an urban location unique for a coed, Catholic liberal arts and sciences school of Emmanuel's size.
Become part of our tradition.
Founded in 1919 by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, Emmanuel College is known for the quality of our values-based academic programs. We offer a supportive learning environment that fosters academic excellence, intellectual integrity and a strong social conscience.
Experience a wealth of diversity.
Our coed student body comes from all across the United States and from 31 countries around the world, offering a rich blend of outlooks, customs and ideas.
Receive personalized attention.
With our small class settings and a student-to-faculty ratio of 16-to-1, you'll never get lost in the crowd. Nor will you ever get lost in the shuffle: All our classes are taught by qualified faculty, not graduate students.
Embrace an extended campus.
With the Colleges of the Fenway, you can take courses, attend social events and use the gyms and libraries at any of the six collaborating institutions. You'll have access to resources equal to those of a large university without losing any of the benefits of a small college environment.
Prepare for your future.
The future is here at Emmanuel, with a wired and networked campus; an exclusive research partnership with Merck Pharmaceuticals; and internships at world-famous museums, top medical facilities and Fortune 500 businesses.
