School Description
Provided by Endicott CollegeEndicott College was founded in 1939 by Dr. Eleanor Tupper and her husband, Dr. George O. Bierkoe, who shared the vision of creating a college to educate women for greater independence and an enhanced position in the workplace. Of course, this was a radical idea in those days near the end of the Depression and just before America’s entry into World War II. Despite its unconventional nature, the dream took hold and flourished during the war and the years beyond.
The primary mission of Endicott College is to instill in students an understanding of and an appreciation for professional and liberal studies. Deeply woven within this philosophy is the concept of applied learning which has been the hallmark of Endicott. Linking classroom and off campus work experience through required internships remains the most distinguishing feature of the College.
Endicott has a vision for the total development of the individual within a community which fosters an appreciation of cultural diversity, international awareness, community service, and moral and ethical values. Endicott is an innovative and vibrant, student centered institution which supports students in their pursuit of knowledge.
Naturally, no two students experience Endicott in the same way or at the same pace. Yet common threads run through the fabric of the Endicott experience: increased self-confidence, stronger professional skills and technological competencies, and perhaps the most valued of all, lives open to change.

College Advice |
Question: i want to be a dental hygienist, can i go to Endicott College?i'm a junior in high school right now and i'll be applying to colleges soon. i just took a campus tour of Endicott and i've fallen in love with it. i want to be a dental hygienist and im planning on getting my associates degree in it which only takes two years. so my question is, can i still go to endicott? they don't offer the exact major of dental hygiene but is there anyway i can take the classes they do offer that correlate with dental hygiene? do i specifically have to go to a dental hygiene school (there aren't many). i really want to go to endicott, is there any way that i can do this and still be a dental hygienist?9 months ago
Best AnswerThe same happened to me. I fell in love w Purdue, but they don't have a hygiene program. So, at Purdue, I took the pre-requisite courses that were needed to get into a hygiene school, and then applied to a hygiene school to get into their program. The only way Endicott will be a waste of your time is if you apply to a hygiene program that only offers a bachelors degree. You would have to take over a bunch of classes just to credit at their school. I think it's a scam personally, because in the two years I went to Purdue, I had every class finished that I would have needed for a bachelors at a 4-yr hygiene school. Stick with the 2-year degree and you are golden. Good luck! You do have to graduate from an official accredited dental hygiene school ( you can find out the schools by looking up your states board of dental examiners website) to be able to take national and clinical boards and to even apply for your license. You clean patient's teeth in hygiene school and take xrays. You need a dental clinical to work in and a DDS on site. No there are not many schools. It is very competitive. but if you want it bad enough you'll have no problem! |
Question: ENDICOTT COLLEGE: What's it like??I'm considering applying to Endicott. There are a few things I'm curious about it: -How hard is it to get into? -If you currently attend or have attended Endicott, what do/did you like about it? Dislike? -How's the Greek Life? -Is the overall cost affordable, average, or expensive? All feedback is appreciated! Thanks!20 months ago
Best AnswerI never attended or worked at Endicott, but I worked at the school down the road from it. I used to bike up that way on my lunch breaks. They have a beautiful campus and Beverly is a great little town with easy access to Boston via the commuter rail. |
Question: Is endicott college a hard school to get into, and is it a good school for sports management?^37 months ago
Best AnswerI've heard good things about it. It's not on a level with Harvard, but it's not a bad school either. It isn't the easiest school to get into, but is probably worth the effort. |
