The best colleges in Massachusetts are the ones located in the best places, and Quincy is hard to beat! There’s a reason we’ve called it home for 120 years.

Urban enough for the adventurous, suburban enough to feel like a safe place to spend a college career: this is key to the appeal of college campuses in and around Quincy.
Quincy is steeped in American history. It’s even called the “Birthplace of the American Dream” because two U.S. presidents were born here: John Adams and his son, John Quincy Adams. You can visit the farmhouse where both were born on the 13 acres of Adams National Historical Park. It’s the oldest presidential birthplace in the country.
You can also check out the Thomas Crane Public Library, a national landmark, the Josiah Quincy House where Sons of Liberty meetings were held, or the United First Parish Church.
Historic sites are everywhere in Quincy. But if that’s not enough, there’s much more to see outside city limits, throughout Norfolk County – the birthplaces of two more presidents, for one thing. John F. Kennedy and George H.W. Bush.
Quincy’s Marina Bay is the largest marina in the Northeast. Indoor and outdoor waterfront dining, shopping or just strolling the boardwalk along the water – especially if you get there early enough to watch the sunrise over the Squantum Channel – are year-round attractions.
Check out Wollaston Beach, just a short walk from ENC’s campus, and relax by the water, stroll along the sand or grab a bite to eat at a nearby restaurant.
Quincy is just a short 8 miles to downtown Boston. Take advantage of our public transportation and hop on the MBTA, or “The T” as locals say, and venture into the city to explore. Catch a Red Sox game, shop around Faneuil Hall, dive into history and follow the Freedom Trail, dine at one of the many restaurants, and much more. There is something for everyone.
