Welcome to the Class of 2028 at The Catholic University of America! This is a very exciting time for you and your family. The next couple of months will go by very quickly, and there is much that you, your family, and CatholicU will be doing to prepare for your arrival.
As you continue your spring and summer planning, we wanted to let you know that the Office of Campus Activities is here to help you through your transition to CatholicU. Your on-campus journey will begin on Thursday, August 22, with Orientation. This program is designed for first-year students, transfer students, and their families.
In preparation for orientation, there are several important next steps you'll need to complete. This web page details each step and will provide you with all the information you need to stay on track. We can't wait to welcome you to campus and have you as a member of the CatholicU family!
