Quincy College




Quincy College is a Community College located in Quincy, Massachusetts , with a second campus located in Plymouth, Massachusetts . The college is a neighbor of Quincy High School and is well known for its low-cost program. It was formerly called "Quincy Junior College."

Quincy College is a fully-accredited two-year college offering over 500 courses to almost 4,000 students and awarding Associate degrees and certificates of completion in a wide variety of studies. Quincy College is a public community college operating under the auspices of the City of Quincy with campuses in both Quincy and Plymouth Massachusetts.

As an open access institution which encourages academic achievement, diversity, economic opportunity and lifelong learning, Quincy College facilitates valuable learning relationships with students whose educational and professional futures might otherwise remain unrealized.

As of 7/11/2007, the school was reaccredited for 10 more years until 2016, but the school must submit plans for improvement in some areas like staffing and increasing retention rates.
