Fisher College occupies several historic brownstone buildings in Boston's residential Back Bay neighborhood, positioned along Beacon Street and within walking distance of the Public Garden and Boston Common. The private, independent college, established in 1903, began as a business school for women and has evolved into a coeducational institution offering both two-year and four-year degree programs. Fisher specializes in business administration, criminal justice, and health sciences programs, while maintaining small class sizes at its urban campus. The college operates traditional dormitory housing in its historic buildings, and its central Boston location provides students direct access to public transportation and the city's cultural resources. Fisher competes in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) with its teams known as the Falcons.
