Endicott College

What Endicott College does

Endicott College is a private, non-profit higher education institution founded in 1939 and located on an oceanfront campus in Beverly, Massachusetts, approximately 20 miles north of Boston. The college serves approximately 5,000 students through eight academic schools: the Cummings School of Nursing & Health Sciences, the Curtis L. Gerrish School of Business, the School of Education, the School of Science & Technology (which houses an ABET-accredited engineering program), the School of Social Sciences, Communication & Humanities, the School of Sport Science, the School of Visual & Performing Arts, and the Institute for Applied Behavioral Science. The Van Loan School of Professional Studies offers flexible graduate and professional programs for adult learners in online, hybrid, and in-person formats. The institution's signature differentiator is the Endicott Experiential Edge, a four-year internship model combined with study/work-abroad programs that the college cites as producing 89% career-relevant placement among employed graduates at a 16:1 student-faculty ratio.

The college's revenue mechanics rest on tuition and fees as the primary stream, supplemented by auxiliary services (campus bookstore managed by Barnes & Noble College, dining, housing) and event venue rentals through wholly-owned subsidiaries Misselwood Events, Wylie Center, and Tupper Manor. Pricing is published in tiered form only for military students ($750 per class / $250 per credit with application fee waived). Underlying technology platforms include a 2025-rebuilt photo-driven website (delivered with agency Liquid), an EC Alerts mass-notification system for campus safety, VR wellness stations developed with trustee-affiliated ImmersiveWorlds for student mental health, and an "AI @ Endicott" initiative integrating AI across academic programs. Customer acquisition is sales-led, executed through traditional admissions channels (campus visits, college fairs, direct outreach), and notably includes dedicated veteran recruitment via VITAL and Student Veterans of America partnerships.

Endicott's go-to-market targets three primary segments: prospective undergraduate students seeking private liberal-arts education with experiential learning, graduate and adult learners seeking flexible credentials through the Van Loan School, and military and veteran students (where Endicott ranks in the U.S. News top 10 for Best Colleges for Veterans — Regional Universities North). Major strategic stakeholders include the Cummings Foundation ($20M nursing partnership), Beverly/Addison Gilbert Hospitals (clinical pipeline), and Barnes & Noble College (bookstore operations). The college operates as a 501(c)(3) non-profit under Massachusetts jurisdiction, with Bryan Cain, Ph.D. installed as the eighth president in March 2026.
