What's left behind the scenes
- The scenes on campus were filmed on the grounds of Middlesex School in Concord, Massachusetts. Offering their services to the filmmakers, the school administration had no idea about the plot of the future film.
- The plot is based on the recollections of producer and screenwriter Dick Wolf.
- The scene at the bus station was filmed near a store in Leominster, Massachusetts. The building once housed a railway station, and its appearance fully corresponded to the filmmakers' idea of what an old bus station should look like. Repairs were carried out inside the building as payment for its use.
- Money was paid to the owners of some buildings in Groton, Massachusetts, to bring the buildings into proper condition for filming.
- McGivern struggles with reading the French translation of the poem "Before Marble Statues" by English poet John Keats (1795-1821) in class.
- In the chapel, David recites the Avinu Malkeinu prayer, asking the Lord for atonement.
- Due to tense relations between African Americans and Caucasians, the night training scene had to be reshot several times. When the director allowed the players to "play for real," a real brawl broke out on the field, with Brendan Fraser and Matt Damon at its center. This episode was filmed in Twentynine Palms, California.
- The film was released in France under the title Le College d'Elite. The French teacher, Mr. Cliari, who harassed MacGyver, was replaced by the Italian Signor Rinaldi. All the French dialogue was re-recorded in Italian.
- Brendan Fraser later recounted that the fight in the shower was filmed for so long that the hot water ran out. The actors had to continue filming under streams of cold water.
- McGivern struggles with reading the French translation of the poem “Ode on a Grecian Urn” by English poet John Keats (1795-1821) in class.
