A few words on fit.

"Fit” is the modern buzzword of the college search process. And frankly, rightly so. As you consider your college experience, we encourage you to look for a place that feels right. It’s also a good idea to make a list of the qualities and characteristics that make a college and you a winning combination.

If you are looking for a college that:

Gets to know and understand each student as a uniquely talented individual

Identifies potential and encourages students in very intentional ways

Fosters growth in each student, giving them a foundation for life and career success

Is small enough to deliver on the promise of a personalized experience

Goes beyond “career services” and offers a progressive 4-year career development model, partnering with local businesses and nonprofits for professional experience

Promotes an inclusive culture that encourages students to experiment in new clubs and activities

Is nationally recognized for its academic support systems, from professional content tutors (not students) to proven comprehensive support for students with learning differences

Connects students to service opportunities that impact their world

Is in a location that offers access to New England’s natural places and some of America’s greatest cities
