Merrimack College is a small, private Augustinian university in North Andover, Massachusetts, about 25 miles north of Boston, known for a tight‑knit residential campus, strong business and health‑related programs, and warm, collaborative campus life. Students often rave about the close community, Division I hockey‑driven school spirit, easy access to Boston internships, and a feel that blends suburban quiet with enough clubs and events to keep things lively.
Common Majors
business administration, nursing and health‑related fields, psychology, biology
"I love Merrimack’s small‑town‑near‑Boston vibe, how easy it is to get involved in clubs and hockey culture while still keeping classes small and professor‑heavy, but from a past‑student view I’ll say the split between commuters and residents, the sometimes‑quiet weekends, and the way the campus can feel a bit repetitive once you’ve lived there a while were all more noticeable than the campus tour ever let on."
