About This School

William James College is a private nonprofit institution located in Newton, Massachusetts with approximately 36 undergraduate students enrolled.

With just 36 undergraduate students, this Newton, MA institution offers an unusually intimate learning environment, which can be a genuine advantage for those who thrive with close faculty attention. However, the extremely small enrollment raises real questions about peer community, campus life, and the long-term institutional stability you'd want before committing four years and significant tuition dollars. Worth a closer look only if you've visited, felt a strong fit, and done thorough research on outcomes data beyond what's publicly available.
