Pine Manor Institute for Student Success

The Pine Manor Institute for Student Success was established in 2020 following the integration of Boston College and Pine Manor College. The Pine Manor Institute provides support and opportunities for academic growth and personal enrichment to first-generation students with high financial need. The Pine Manor Institute's key pillars include:

• Mentoring and Academic Achievement, support programs for first-generation, high financial need, and underrepresented students at Boston College.
• Messina College, Boston College's fully-residential associate's degree program for first-generation, high financial need students.
