Bay Path University is one of the 49 colleges included on Intelligent.com’s list of Best Colleges in Massachusetts 2021. The website, which gathers and analyzes data to help students plan their educational journeys, looked at 199 education programs, ranging from large research universities to small liberal arts colleges, as well as online and in-classroom learning options; analyzing curriculum quality, graduation rate, reputation, and post-graduate employment, along with flexibility, faculty, course strength and cost.

The 2021 rankings were calculated through a unique scoring system that also included student engagement, potential return on investment, and leading third-party evaluations.

“Massachusetts is home to some of the most prestigious institutions in the country, if not the world, so being included on this list puts us in good company,” says Maura Devlin, Associate Vice President and Dean, Undergraduate Studies. “A Bay Path education has the potential to transform students’ lives, and our students’ social mobility is a key element of our mission. This recognition is a testament to the ongoing efforts of our staff and faculty, as well as the drive and determination of our students.”
