Feel at home on our beautiful Milton, Massachusetts, campus, a 131-acre New England setting just seven miles from downtown Boston.

National Survey for Student Engagement Results
The National Survey for Student Engagement (NSSE) ranks Curry College ahead of our peer institutions in personal attention, career-focused education and community engagement.
Only College in Massachusetts to Offer Job Guarantee
President Jay Gonzalez announced at his Inauguration in 2024 that Curry College is the first and only college in Massachusetts to offer a job guarantee program, called The Curry Commitment, beginning with the Class of 2027. "Curry is leading the way with this initiative...and it’s responsive to the number one priority of students and families today—that their investment in college is going to be worth it and result in a job.”
