Tiger Immersion Days

Immersion Day is all about helping our newest Tigers feel prepared, connected, and confident as they begin their college journey. Before classes start, the entire Holy Family community—faculty, staff, and fellow students—comes together to welcome and support our incoming students. It’s a day focused on sharing important academic expectations, building connections, and making sure students have the tools they need to succeed both in and beyond the classroom. Immersion Day sets the tone for a smooth transition into college life and a strong start at Holy Family University.
