The Educational Contract

Placing your needs first - that's what we do best. At Simmons, we help students achieve successful careers, meaningful lives, and a powerful return on their educational investment. We view this as our top priority, as an educational contract that underscores our commitment to students.

Too many schools lose sight of the implicit agreement they have with students. But we believe you should expect your school to always keep your best interests in mind and at heart.

Simmons will help you make the most of the time, money, and energy you invest in your education - and in your future. Here are some of the advantages we offer:

  • A small, accessible community that encourages collaboration and challenges students to do their best.
  • Faculty who focus on your educational objectives and career needs, while undertaking research and publishing books, but never at the expense of their primary obligation to teach.
  • Extraordinary professional preparation with an emphasis on intellectual exploration and community orientation, because we understand that all three approaches are necessary to help you succeed.
  • An outstanding location in the heart of Boston, a world-class college town with unlimited educational, career, and social opportunities.

Our Pledge

Simmons College will focus on your career and life goals. We pledge to uphold an educational contract that places students first. You won't get lost at Simmons - instead, you'll work closely and collaboratively with faculty who are leading experts in their fields and who know your name. We'll make sure you're an important part of a stimulating community that inspires dialogue, action, and professional growth.

Expect the best from your educational investment.
