Students come to Commonwealth in search of peers as kind, inquisitive, passionate, and principled as they are—and they find them in a close-knit community of 154 students from 40+ communities around Boston. Together, they push themselves academically, pursue new interests, and grow into thoughtful young adults who excel in college, career, and life.
