College of Our Lady of the Elms

Elms College is a private coeducational Catholic college offering a liberal arts curriculum that gives students multiple perspectives on life. Founded in 1928 by the Sisters of St. Joseph, Elms College has a tradition of educating reflective, principled and creative learners, who are rooted in faith, educated in mind, compassionate in heart, responsive to civic and social obligations, and capable of adjusting to change without compromising principle. The college grants associate's, bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees in a range of subject areas, including nursing, social work, business, education, criminal justice, communication sciences and disorders, science and STEM, computer science, psychology, premed, and more. We also offer degree-completion programs in partnership with area community colleges, as well as online and hybrid program options in many degrees.
