It has been the tradition of Fisher College to serve the
educational needs of different populations. In its Day Division,
Fisher provides career and transfer programs in a small college
setting. This division actively seeks a diverse student population
reflecting a cross section of American and international
cultures.
The Graduate and Professional Studies Division offers degree
and certificate programs both electronically and at locations in
eastern Massachusetts to a broad spectrum of learners as well as to
business and industry through courses, seminars, workshops, and
training sessions. When it was founded in 1903, Fisher College
emphasized vocational preparation for its first few decades. Since
then curriculum plans and objectives have expanded.
In 1952, Fisher was approved as a two-year college by the Board
of Regents of Higher Education of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, and, in 1957, was given degree-granting powers. In
1970, Fisher gained membership in the New England Association of
Schools and Colleges, Inc., with accreditation. Today, students
from all parts of America and from numerous foreign countries
attend Fisher's Day Division. In January 1999 Fisher College was
approved by the Massachusetts Board of Higher Education to offer
the Bachelor of Science in Management Degree. In December 2009
Fisher College was approved by the Massachusetts Board of Higher

Studies, as well as a Bachelor of Science in Human Services. Today,
the college offers a wide variety of Bachelor degree and
