Maine Private Colleges & Universities
Independent Colleges, Schools, and Universities
Separated as they are from the rest of the United States, Maine colleges offer students a certain degree of seclusion. While this level of isolation might scare off some, it is ideal for those students who prefer relative quiet coupled with breathtaking nature.
Perhaps it is just some antiquated notion of what academia is, but there is something about fall foliage, misty coastlines, and serene forests that bring out the scholar in certain people. For whatever reason, Maine colleges and universities are famous for producing serious, talented
graduates.
Maine private colleges and universities offer a wide range of education programs with degrees and certificates up to the doctoral level, as well as professional degrees such as law and medicine. These Maine private schools are diverse in character, academic emphasis, and origins. Some private colleges or schools have a religious affiliation; others are secular. Private colleges and universities may be profit or non-profit institutions. Typically,
Maine independent colleges or private schools give weight to personal characteristics and activities in addition to considering GPA and test scores. While many
Maine private schools are considerably more expensive than comparable state institutions, they also tend to offer more generous financial aid packages. Many students have found the actual out-of-pocket cost to earn a degree from a private college in Maine to be less than the cost of the state schools to which they were accepted. On the one hand, public colleges are usually less expensive, particularly for in-state residents. They get most of their money from the state or local government.

Maine private colleges rely on tuition, fees, endowments, and other private sources of funding. On the other hand, Maine private colleges are usually smaller and can offer more personalized attention (and some believe, more prestige).

ISANNE believe that there is no purpose more worthy or essential than educating our children. In a day and age of voluminous quantities of information and imagery being rapidly disseminated, in a time when the pace of change is often dizzying, it is absolutely necessary
that schools devote careful, personal attention to their students and accept the responsibility for developing values in their hearts as well as capabilities in their minds. ISANNE believe that an independent school is the right setting for such efforts, and we are confident that you -
parents of young people - will find the right independent school among the variety of Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont schools presented in this Directory.
Believing that schools have the potential to make our world better through their work with children, AISNE provides educational leadership and relevant, responsive services to its diverse membership; promotes equity, excellence and collaboration
within the New England independent school community; supports schools in their service to a broader public purpose; and advocates for the independence of member schools and the value of independent education.
