Anchored between water and mountain, Franklin Pierce University
in Rindge, New Hampshire is the kind of college you have to see to believe. Our breathtaking scenery provides the setting for student engagement in small classes taught by dedicated faculty. The freshman residences, our 72,000 square foot recreation center, the glassblowing facility and the impressive Marlin Fitzwater Center for Communication will be among the stops on your tour. During your visit you will learn about student life including our outstanding clubs, recreation and intramural opportunities and our NCAA Division II Athletic teams. You will meet current students and talk with an Admissions Counselor. Nothing compares to experiencing our campus community in person. We look forward to welcoming you to Franklin Pierce College.
