Join us on campus for one of our upcoming Open House events! We invite you to experience the personalized support, vibrant campus life, and academic excellence that make Beacon College the ideal choice for students with learning differences.
Beacon College’s Center for College Readiness draws on our successful 35-year history of working exclusively with students who learn differently through seven unique programs for students and families through hands-on learning and one-to-one coaching.
Intellectual challenge is at the heart of a Beacon education. We take this very seriously, but we are also very practical about it. Our 10 bachelor’s degree programs are intended to prepare our students to find worthy work in today’s global marketplace. Additionally, we encourage students to explore their diverse interests through one or more of our 17 minors.
“Pursuing the life abundant” is the pervading theme that infuses everything we do at Beacon College. It’s something we take very seriously indeed.
At Beacon, you’ll be able to be the most that you can be. Both within the classroom and far beyond it, we nurture a vivacious learning laboratory that calls upon you to seek and cherish all of life’s richness.
Watch our most recent virtual information session featuring our College Edge on-campus program for high school seniors and transfer college students! Meet Brody Glidden, former associate dean, for a brief overview of the program, its timeline and benefits, and a live Q&A. This session was recorded in February 2026.
This highly interactive program focuses on five major areas that often lead to student attrition at college, and helps build these skills with practical hands-on coursework, coaching, and activities. Students will leave with not just an understanding of how to improve their college-level skills, but how to apply newly developed strategies to their specific collegiate environment so they enter, or re-enter, feeling confident.
