      I transferred into Fisher College my junior year and I can honestly say I am very happy I found this college. I chose Fisher because of the small class size and the location of the school. I am not just another student; my teachers know my name and I can reach out to them for extra help and recommendations. Our classes are filled with students from China, Saudi Arabia, Sweden, etc. It's been great to be able to hear different perspectives from different cultures. The location of the school is AMAZING. Everything is a T-ride away or a twenty-minute walk. When it's nice out, you can hang out on the docks behind the school, eat in China Town, bike around the Charles River, and explore all the events happening in the city. This is not a party school but you will live in a city with over 200,000 college students. Do not let partying affect your choice when picking a college. You will find plenty of things to do on the weekend that are off campus, trust me!

      The students are friendly and can help you if you have trouble adopting to the new environment Fisher College has in store for you! But not just the students, the staff are always there to help if you have any trouble living comfortably on or off campus. Their housing opportunities are just as abundant as their educational and intellectual opportunities. It's no wonder that they have been nationally recognized as one of the nation's most prestigious liberal arts and business colleges for centuries since the college's establishment in 1903! But, they don't offer degrees in just business and the liberal arts! You can take a whole variety of courses and end up with marketable jobs at the same time! The staff at Fisher College will go above and beyond to help you find your ideal job with the best pay. That's why, in my point of view, Fisher College works! Don't miss out on your opportunity to study in the most liberal neighborhood in all Massachusetts!
      My experience with Fisher College is a positive one. To me, Fisher College's greatest strengths lie in it's surrounding area and professors. The area around Fisher College is also one of Fisher College's strengths. By being located in the Back Bay of Boston, there is always something to do off-campus. TD Garden, Fenway Park, the Boston Commons, and the Prudential Center are just some examples of locations that are accessible from Fisher College. Another example of one of Fisher College's strengths is the college's professors. The professors that work at Fisher College are all proficient in their respective fields and are dedicated to ensuring that their students succeed. Overall, Fisher College is a great school that provides a small size and quality education for a reasonable price, all while being located in a big city like Boston.
