First-Year Experience
Manresa Student Orientation
Manresa \man-ree-sa\ (n) 1: Town in Spain where St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Jesuits, reflected on his life. 2: Xavier's first-year orientation program, designed to introduce students to campus and each other before classes start.
Manresa is a chance to connect with classmates, upper-class student leaders, and the campus community. Students experience the program in a small group, which gives them the opportunity to create connections that may last for years to come.
