Standish, Maine is home to Saint Josephs College. Standish is a rural site not far from an urban area. Students select the school partly because it is a Roman Catholic school. Saint Josephs College is a private, not-for-profit institution. Degrees at the school go up to the Master's degree.
Students commonly pursue studies in nursing and emergency medicine and medical adminstration.
Prospective students are advised that admissions are not open to all; the school selects from among qualified applicants. Three quarters of students in 2005 had SAT verbal scores of at least 440. Half of math SAT scores of accepted students fell between 440 and 560. Since a large share of students are from out-of-state, you can assume the school has broad appeal.
Saint Josephs College has a tenure system for senior faculty.
The school has 3,636 enrolled students (as of 2005). Saint Josephs College has a large minority student population.
Full-time students are the norm at the school. Saint Josephs College offers dorm rooms to a higher percentage of its students than do most colleges. The school values student athletics, and belongs to the Division III Independents and North Atlantic Conference.
