Applying to Holy Cross

Is Holy Cross College Right for You? 

At Holy Cross, we approach the college admissions process differently. We believe that it is important to get to know you. Your interests, activities, and career goals all play a role in your application and our admissions decision. Community service and leadership experience will have a positive impact on your scholarship opportunities.

At Holy Cross we value giving students the independence to make their own choices without them feeling lost in the crowd. Our campus community is large enough to have all the things you need, but is still small enough to make lasting friendships. We strongly encourage all interested students to make a campus visit as part of your application process. This helps you better understand all the ways our curriculum and campus life opportunities fit into your plans for the next four years.

Because we focus on each student's individual experience, Holy Cross College is a place to achieve an exceptional education. Why not apply online today?

Campus Visits

A campus visit is not required, but is highly recommended either before or after the admission decision. Visiting the campus and meeting with an admission counselor and current students is the best way to finalize college choices. Campus visits can be scheduled for any weekday between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. EST throughout the year. Appointments for campus visits outside of these times may be arranged upon request.
