Founded in 1919, Western New England University is recognized today as one of the top regional universities in the North, and boasts national-ranked programs in business and engineering. Serving a student population of around 4,000, the university fosters the intimate learning environment of a classic small liberal arts school. The university’s hometown of Springfield is widely known as part of the region’s “Knowledge Corridor” due to the high number of colleges in the area, and as a result the city’s nightlife is legendary. The Club Quarter in particular is a major hotspot for the college crowd on weekends, and the nearby Downtown district along the Connecticut River offers a huge array of restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues as well.
The area immediately surrounding the university is considerably quieter, mostly composed of residential neighborhoods; this makes it fairly easy to find the right apartment, house, or condo for your lifestyle and budget, with numerous options within walking distance of campus.
