Admission Meet and Greet
What is a Meet and Greet?
As part of the admission process, all students who apply to Arrupe College will attend a Meet and Greet. This session is a chance for you to visit campus, connect with current students, faculty, and staff, and learn more about what makes Arrupe unique. Your Meet and Greet will take place in Maguire Hall, the home of Arrupe College at 草莓社区’s beautiful Water Tower Campus.
What to Expect
When you arrive, you’ll check in and then join a small group activity. This may include a campus tour, a short presentation about Arrupe, or conversations with members of our community—including faculty, staff, or alumni. Light refreshments will be provided.
Attending with Family
While the Meet and Greet is designed for prospective students, parents and guardians are encouraged to come along. Families will have the opportunity to ask questions about admission, financial aid, and ways to best support you throughout the college journey.
After Your Meet and Greet
Within two weeks of your visit, you will receive an admission decision. If admitted, we’ll share your next steps to enroll and prepare for your first semester.
