Manresa

Get ready for the start of four unforgettable years.

Manresa is much more than your typical college move-in experience. Over the course of four days, our welcoming squad of upperclassmen will get you moved in, introduce you to your academic advisor and show you the ropes of all things Xavier. And we’ll connect you with a group of other new Musketeers to experience Manresa with—setting you up with new friendships that last well beyond your time here.

Two students walk into Gallagher Student Center on Xavier's campus in the evening.

Manresa Schedule

The Manresa schedule is packed with everything from campus explorations to hilarious icebreaker games, ensuring you kickstart your college journey with a whole lot of fun. Thursday, Aug. 14 through Saturday, Aug. 16, 2025.
