Nichols College Welcomes The College Tour TV Series to Campus

TV show about college life is filming on the Nichols campus this week

Dudley, MA (04/29/2024) — (For Immediate Release:)

Nichols College is pleased to announce that The College Tour, an Amazon Prime and Apple TV show about college life, is filming on the Nichols College campus from April 29 through May 3, 2024.

The show, now in its 12th season, is hosted by Massachusetts native and Executive Producer Alex Boylan, who won the CBS series The Amazing Race in 2002. Boylan's interest in creating an educational reality show stemmed from an experience he had while taking his niece on college tours. Knowing that many students don't have the financial means to travel far from their hometowns, Boylan aspired to create a show that promotes an accurate depiction of campus life through academics, career preparation, research, student activities, and intercollegiate sports.

"We are excited to showcase Nichols College and our extraordinary students to prospective students, their families and other viewers across the nation," said Nichols College President William C. Pieczynski. "The students selected for the episode have taken full advantage of all Nichols offers, including experiential learning opportunities, NCAA Division III athletics, student government, and leadership of clubs and organizations. They are our best ambassadors, and we look forward to showing others the significant value of a Nichols education."
