Information from The College of the Holy Cross
Greetings
from Holy Cross,
Students
can apply for the program through this link: holycross.edu/perspectives.
The deadline to apply online is Monday October 13. The
Perspectives Program is a great opportunity for prospective students to explore
diversity on campus and engage in thoughtful conversations with current
students. It is a busy, but very rewarding weekend.
If
you or your student has any questions about the Program, please do not hesitate
to contact Ashley Johnson (ajohnson@holycross.edu)
as she is the Co-Coordinator of the Program. If a student is accepted to
the program, but the cost of transportation would cause undue hardship to the
student's family, please contact Ashley as soon as possible and she will work
to possibly help resolve the issue.
Best,
Xiaofeng
