Activities or mission (Part I)

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN CUMMINGS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY'S mission is to deliver transformative technical and trade education that leads to economic advancement.

  • Benjamin Franklin Cummings Institute of Technology (Franklin Cummings Tech) offers programs that align with job opportunities in high-growth fields like clean energy, robotics, automation, construction management, and biotech. Franklin Cummings Tech achieved an operating surplus in the past four consecutive fiscal years. Total operating dollars raised were up 34% over last fiscal year. For fiscal year 2025 net tuition revenue represented 33% of total operating revenue and contributions and grants represented 62% of revenue with the remaining 4% coming from other income. Franklin Cummings Tech currently has approximately 147 full and part-time faculty and staff. Franklin Cummings Tech believes in making personalized, flexible education affordable and accessible for everyone, creating a more equitable and resilient Greater Boston through access to family-sustaining income. During the year the college served a total of 1,125 students, a 12% increase over last year with 55% traditional students, 29% in the newly created division of workforce development and continuing studies, and 16% in early college programs. During Fiscal year 2023 Franklin Cummings Tech received all its approvals for the development of a new campus in the Nubian Square neighborhood of Boston. In March of 2024 the college closed on its bridge financing and construction began on the new campus. It also closed on a New Market Tax Credit program which will net $9.3 million towards the project costs. As of June 30, 2025, the College incurred a total of $42,824,126 in development and construction costs. Construction is expected to be completed in the fall of 2025.

The first 25 listed. Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Related organizations

From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
