Endicott College is a private college in Beverly, Massachusetts. It was founded in 1939 by Dr. Eleanor Tupper and her husband, the Rev. Dr. George O. Bierkoe, as a women's junior college meant to prepare women for greater independence and better workplace positions. It is named for John Endicott, the first governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and first purchased an estate and Victorian mansion for classrooms and housing. It was approved to grant associate degrees in 1944 and accredited in 1952, dropped 'Junior' from its name in 1975, earned four-year status in 1988 and graduated its first baccalaureate class in 1990. The first coeducational class entered in 1994, graduate programs began in 1996, and in 2012 it became the first North Shore college to offer doctoral programs. It also has sites in Gloucester and Boston.
