WHY PARTICIPATE IN PERSPECTIVES?

It was refreshing to get to hear the real experiences of some of the students on campus. It helped to increase my confidence that Holy Cross is a good fit for me, because I felt like I could trust the students' answers.

WHAT PERSPECTIVES ATTENDEES HAVE SAID ABOUT THE PROGRAM:

I would definitely recommend this to a future prospective student, it is way more informational and helpful than a tour because It really helps you know if there is a connection between you and the school. I would recommend the program so that other students who are interested could have the opportunity to feel the same.
