Hellenic College
The Mission of the College
Hellenic College is a unique institution of higher learning. It is the only accredited four-year liberal arts college in the
Americas centered upon Orthodox Christian beliefs and enriched by the ideals of a Hellenic classical education. Hellenic
College holds fast to the conviction that reason and faith can and must be nurtured together. This dynamic synergy lies at
the heart of who we are.
Hellenic College offers programs that are balanced among the humanities, the social sciences, and selected professions.
The College welcomes students from diverse religious traditions and racial and ethnic backgrounds.
On our hilltop campus overlooking Boston, students come to know themselves, their talents, and each other, and
experience the gift of faith in God. Thoroughly educated in their fields of study and enhanced by their religious and
social experiences, our graduates leave us deeply committed to a life of faith, learning, and service. We trust that these
men and women will excel in their chosen careers and make the world a better place.
