Bryant University's academic programs are distinguished by an integration of business, STEM fields and the liberal arts with a global perspective and offer master's and bachelor's degrees, in addition to certificate programs. Located in Smithfield, Rhode Island, on approximately 430 acres the University provides academic, residential, and other services to a diverse student population of approximately 3,200 undergraduate and 330 graduate students who are primarily from the Northeast region of the United States, as well as from approximately 30 U.S states and 40 foreign countries.
Approximately 85% of the undergraduates and 90% of the freshmen reside on campus in the residence halls and townhouses.

Most seniors live independently in townhouse units with full responsibility for their cooking, cleaning, etc. All living areas include telephone, cable, and computer access. All students who live on campus, except for those in the townhouses, are required to participate in a meal plan.
