The Perspectives Day Program is designed for prospective high school juniors and seniors who reside in Connecticut, Massachusetts, or Rhode Island, who may be from families with limited financial resources, attending rural and urban Title I schools, and/or those who are unable to visit campus on their own. Students who will be the first in their family (excluding siblings) to attend college are also welcome to attend. If you have an interest in visiting Holy Cross, we encourage you to register regardless of your demographic or economic background.
Through the Perspectives program, we aim to provide space for students to explore topics regarding Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Once on campus, students will connect with current Holy Cross students to ask honest questions and gain valuable insight into the admission process and campus community here at the College of the Holy Cross.
The Perspectives Day Program will be held in conjunction with our Fall Open House Programming. Perspectives students will attend Open House in the morning and attend Perspectives programming in the afternoon.
Registration for the Perspectives Day Program is full at this time. Students are encouraged to join us on campus for our Fall Open House programs on either Sunday, September 29 or Sunday, November 10. Learn more and register here.
In addition, Holy Cross offers campus tours and information sessions that can be scheduled on our website.
