At Simmons, we place students first. Our hands-on curriculum integrates intellectual leadership, career preparation, and community orientation, because all three approaches are necessary for success. We are proud of our welcoming, collaborative community that encourages dialogue, action, and respect—and that makes the Simmons experience as thoughtful as it is thought provoking.

Saint Mary’s mission is to educate women, develop their talents, and prepare them to make a difference in the world. Our supportive community fosters confidence, ethical leadership, and strong academic success. With small class sizes and outstanding faculty, students establish mentor relationships with faculty and participate in research opportunities that aren’t typically found in undergraduate settings. In addition, our students spend four years making friendships that last a lifetime, and graduates join a significant network of alumnae across many industries, across the country, and across the globe.
