Exact results for the scaling properties of compact polymers on the square lattice are obtained from an effective field theory. The entropic exponent \gamma=117/112 is calculated, and a line of fixed points associated with interacting chains is identified; along this line \gamma varies continuously. Theoretical results are checked against detailed numerical transfer matrix calculations, which also yield a precise estimate for the connective constant \kappa=1.47280(1).
