First Year Experiences

First Year Experiences are the first stops on the Road Through Xavier.  The experiences orient undergrads to university life and academics the Xavier way.  These foundational experiences propell students forward, equip them with new tools for navigating their Xavier careers, and prepare them for the high impact learning opportunities ahead.

Manresa is designed as a guide through the early transition to Xavier.

Goa, Xavier's First-Year Journey Program, addresses the new environment and sets the course for accomplishments at Xavier.

First-Year Seminars (CORE 100) are designed to excite intellectual curiosity in an intimate seminar setting.
