President's Welcome

Dear Friends:

Welcome to Lesley University.

Whether you are an adult returning to higher education to pursue a bachelor's, master's or Ph.D. degree, or a recent high school graduate entering college for the first time, our faculty and staff are ready to work with you, learn with you and help you succeed.

Lesley University's four schools offer a wide range of degree programs – programs marked by relevance, academic excellence, intellectual breadth, and a commitment to equip you with the practical skills needed to succeed in the professions that generate positive change for people and communities.

With urban campuses in Cambridge and Boston as anchors, Lesley's face-to-face programs extend across the United States and abroad, and our online graduate degree programs serve students throughout the world. 

I invite you to explore Lesley. For nearly one hundred years our graduates have been thoughtful leaders and effective practitioners in education, human services, and the arts. The positive impact of more than 60,000 Lesley alumni is felt every day in schools, human service organizations, government and non-profit agencies, companies and communities around the world.

Lesley University graduates are successful in their professions and communities because Lesley intentionally connects the academic program with the community of practice – whether that is an art gallery, a school, a business, or a state legislature.  I hope you will consider the benefits of a Lesley education, and how we can develop these experiences and connections for you.

Signed,

Dr. Joseph B. Moore
