The 48-acre main campus is located in the historic community of Longmeadow, Massachusetts, and has approximately 2000 students enrolled in the Undergraduate College for women, the One-Day-A-Week Saturday College for adult women, and the Graduate School for men and women, which offers nine distinctive graduate programs. Bay Path is both a residential and commuter College, and provides on campus and online programming for all our student populations.
