Read What Students Are SayingI would rate Eastern Nazarene College a 9 out of a 10.
I have learned so much about myself while attending.

Lisabeth from Brockton, MA
Since beginning at Eastern Nazarene College, I have learned a lot about myself. I was able to take classes pertaining to my major during my first semester. This helped me finalize my decision of wanting to teach preschool. With the help of a first year experience class, I learned that I would be in school, regardless of financial need to be in school. I have learned more in my first semester here at Eastern Nazarene College about myself than I learned all four years of high school.
Shelby from Ipswich, MA
Did I learn a lot? Heck yes. My major was one of the top programs of its kind in the U.S. I researched it extensively before coming to E.N.C. and met with the professors before I applied. I was part of the Honors program, too. It was difficult, but I learned a lot, and it was worth it.

Lisabeth from Brockton, MA
My professors were fantastic. They were all highly experienced business professionals or impressive academics. I learned a lot inside the classroom and participated in a lot of internships, too.
Jill from New Orleans, LA
The class settings are usually great with many small classes and no huge classes. The music program is big, but there isn't much of a visual art program. However, students with an interest in visual arts can take limited classes at ENC and easily take classes at nearby Quincy College for credit.
The professors are very attentive and many are extremely intelligent, knowledgeable, and open-minded.
