Montserrat College of Art is a private four-year institution specializing in the visual arts located in Beverly, Massachusetts, a coastal city near Boston known for its charming downtown and museums. Founded in 1970, it has since developed a hands-on educational approach with a strong focus on individual creativity and a commitment to teaching the business of art. The college offers a variety of undergraduate art programs, with concentrations such as illustration, animation and interactive media, and fine arts. While the college is less competitive in terms of admissions, it maintains an emphasis on portfolio review. On-campus living options are provided for students, with residences that intertwine with the local community, enhancing their immersive art education. Notable for its individualized attention to students due to its small size, Montserrat does not have a significant presence in intercollegiate athletics.

Montserrat College of Art has an open admission policy which permits enrollment by any high school graduate or GED holding student. 283 students are enrolled on a full time basis, and 13 attend part time. In-state tuition for 2022/2023, excluding room and board, is $36,200 plus fees of $1,650.
