UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMSBring Your Purpose. Find Your Path.
Regis College is a multifaceted Catholic university in Greater Boston with 2,000 undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students in the arts, sciences and health professions devoted to engagement, service and advancement in a global community.
Our small size fosters what we do and how we do it. We believe that true learning takes place in a setting that values the individual—a place where academic support, dedicated professors, and experiential learning strengthen a student’s ability to thrive on campus, in the greater community, and in the world.
At Regis, opportunities abound for students to challenge themselves—both on campus and in other venues. Cross-registration programs with nearby Babson College, Bentley University, and Boston College let you explore coursework outside of Regis. Domestic and international study options allow you to explore new cultures and experiences.
Come deepen your sense of purpose, and discover your path to success, at Regis College.
Academic Overview
Regis College is the first institution in New England to provide all full-time undergraduate and graduate students with Apple iPad computers.
The iPads are an extremely popular addition to the traditional textbooks, laptops, cell phones and iPods toted across campus by students and professors alike, and allow students to expand their learning parameters far beyond the classroom.
Regis students receive their iPads upon their arrival on campus, and utilize these devices for both coursework and personal use.
