Albertus Magnus College
About
Albertus Magnus College is a four-year, private, liberal arts, co-educational college offering undergraduate and graduate programs. It was founded in 1925 by the Dominican Sisters of Peace. Albertus was the first Catholic, liberal arts, residential college for women in New England. It has been co-educational since 1985. Albertus offers more than 50 undergraduate majors, minors and concentrations and 11 graduate programs. The Dominican tradition is the driving force of all that makes Albertus Magnus College an excellent academic community in which to grow.
