From Curry College
Curry College is made for you!
Located in Milton, Massachusetts, which has twice been ranked America’s #1 Safest College Town – and just 7 miles from downtown Boston – Curry offers our 1,600 students a dynamic college experience that makes a tangible difference in their lives.
We welcome a diverse community of students, then uplift them as they set out on their unique journey toward success. The approach looks different every time because no two students are exactly alike. Instead of a one-size-fits all method, we focus on developing genuine relationships, accessible resources, and an environment of support and compassion where students can cultivate confidence and expand their minds.
With over 90 academic programs, 17 NCAA Division III athletic teams, clubs and organizations in nearly every area, and a job guarantee program called ‘The Curry Commitment,’ there are countless ways to make Curry College yours.

If you play on an athletic team, work a part-time job, participate in community service, and/or belong to clubs and organizations, please be sure to include that on your Common Application!
Curry College is completely test (SAT/ACT) optional. If you would like to submit your scores, you are welcome to do so, but please know they are not a required piece of your application.
You’re encouraged to use your personal essay as an opportunity to share a story about YOU! Write about your passions, triumphs, overcoming challenges, or anything else unique to you.
Simply put, we want students who want to be at Curry, so we also track demonstrated interest. To show interest in Curry, be sure to visit early and often, connect with your Admission Counselor, and engage with us through email, text, and on social media!

Is Curry test-optional?
Curry College is test-optional, which means that it does not require applicants to submit their SAT or ACT scores. That means that some students will submit their test scores and others will not. If you choose not to submit your ACT or SAT score, the admissions officers will weigh your grades, extracurricular activities, essays, and interviews more heavily. If you are not sure whether you should submit your standardized test scores, our guide on submitting scores to test-optional schools can help.
Early Action
Regular Decision
What is the application deadline at Curry?
Students must apply by April 1 to enroll at Curry during the fall semester. Remember that college applications involve many pieces, including essays, a transcript, letters of recommendation, and more. Be sure to start your application as soon as you can to make sure you have enough time to make it as compelling as possible.
And if you’re considering applying Early Action at Curry, remember that the deadline is December 1.
Should I apply Early Action at Curry?
Early Action is a great option for students who want to hear back from a college before the Regular Decision admissions are released. At some colleges, applying Early Action can also help your admissions chances. However, this varies on a college-by-college basis, so it will not always give you a boost.
Be on the lookout for Single Choice Early Action or Restricted Early Action options. These are not the same as Early Action, and although they can be great options for some students, they are not a good fit for everyone. If you’re considering applying for Single Choice Early Action or Restricted Early Action, be sure to read the college’s admissions website carefully. Make sure that these restrictions fit with your college admissions plan.
