MORE THAN A CITY

While Downtown Boston is a bustling city, our campus is tucked away in Hyde Park, one of Boston’s quiet suburban neighborhoods. We enjoy our close proximity to the city, but we also enjoy our quick access to beautiful, serene natural areas. Boston Baptist College is just minutes away from Houghton’s Pond, a beautiful lake with a beach and hiking trails, and Blue Hills, the highest elevation point in eastern Massachusetts and a beautifully-preserved hiking trail

Boston Baptist College truly does enjoy the best of both worlds! Click here to plan your visit!

Our Community

Boston is a big city, but Boston Baptist College is a small community that our students call home. We are constantly working to improve and encourage our neighbors as well as show them the love of Christ in our actions, behaviors, and world-views. Many of our students are on a first-name basis with the members of our neighborhood. We always encourage our students to find ways to give back and support the community we hold so close to our heart.
