CommentsHoly Cross College is a Catholic, four-year, co-educational, liberal arts institution founded in 1966 by the Brothers of Holy Cross. Students find personal attention from professors who care about their success. Baccalaureate students must complete four requirements before graduation—a professional internship to develop their real-world qualifications, service experiences to develop their compassion, an international experience to expand their horizons, and a senior Capstone presentation to sum up their college success and attest to a panel of faculty and business leaders that they are ready for life after college. With a campus adjoining St. Mary’s College and the University of Notre Dame, Holy Cross College provides the best of both worlds—a close-knit, small college atmosphere with the resources and social opportunities of a large university. We respect the dignity of every human person, regardless of race, creed or social status. All are welcome – those who share our Catholic faith and those who do not are invited to join with us and take advantage of this remarkable opportunity to learn and grow within a supportive and welcoming faith-based community.
