Welcome Weekend

The Fall semester officially kicks-off the weekend prior to the start of classes. Walsh University’s Welcome Weekend is specifically designed to help our Freshman students learn about all the exciting opportunities and important responsibilities of being a member of the Cavalier Community. Welcome Weekend events are required for all Freshman students.

During Welcome Weekend, students will have the opportunity to meet their peers, connect with faculty and staff, and get acclimated to campus life. From fun activities to essential information sessions, this weekend sets the tone for a successful first year. Our goal is to make sure every Freshman feels supported, informed, and ready to begin their academic journey at Walsh University.
