The Perspectives Overnight Program at Holy Cross is designed for high school seniors who may face barriers to affording a visit to campus—such as limited financial resources, attendance at rural or urban Title I schools, or being among the first in their family (excluding siblings) to attend college. All students with a genuine interest in Holy Cross are encouraged to apply, regardless of demographic or financial circumstances.
This program is a key part of the College’s commitment to fostering access and opportunity. Our mission is to support students who have shown strong academic potential, a dedication to service, and a deep interest in the Jesuit values that define the Holy Cross experience. Participants will stay overnight at a local hotel with their guest, and have the opportunity to connect with current students on campus, experience campus life firsthand, and gain a deeper understanding of the vibrant and supportive Holy Cross community.
