Only students that truly want an education should attent Simmons College, it is a very fun and exciting place to be, but not much of a party school.

Kendra

A person who would be most happy at Simmons would be one who enjoys focusing on school but doesn't want it to overwhelm their lives completely. Simmons has a great sense of community but for someone who would feel stifled at an all-women's school might not flourish at Simmons.

Sophia

People who come here are serious about their education. They study hard and do a lot of extracurriculars. If you are commuting you definately should not come here because you won't have time to do anything on campus. Also people who don't party much could come here because it's a dry campus and people are more focused on studying than having fun.

Emily

Students who are looking for a well rounded education in a open and encouraging environment. Someone looking for a smaller school feel, with intimate classrooms would fit well into this school. Those wishing to participate in college sports, clubs or activities while still succeeding academically would also be well placed at this school.

Veronica

I suggest that women who have a ideal career path focused in the health sciences or physical sciences attend Simmons College. However, Simmons has a very good buisiness program, communications department and education program, as well. The students at Simmons college are very career-oriented and focus strongly on their academics. It is not a party school. If you want the full college experience look else where. If you want to make lasting friends and build a strong foundation for a succesful career, Simmons College is the place for you.

Kate

Though the school strives to be diverse, it seems that the majority of the student body is very liberal. I think that a conservative person would find themselves very uncomfortable here. I would say a liberal, community aware, diversity interested, person would be most comfortable, and most engaged here, so long as they enjoy the city of course, as Simmons is right in the heart of Boston.
