Get More Than an Education

The connections you’ll make in your residence halls, in your first-year Montserrat program, at sporting events, in class, through clubs and organizations or while exploring the city of Worcester will endure for a lifetime. As you explore the world’s most important and interesting questions among friends and fellow scholars, you’ll expand your perspectives, develop new skills and grow as a person. After graduation, you’ll join a network of alumni who show up for each other and for Holy Cross every single day.
