Making Marquette home 

Many first-year students return to campus more confident and comfortable and will receive invitations to become involved in out-of-class experiences. The opportunities are looking different this year but there are still ways to engage, including student organizations, community service opportunities, intramural and club sports, and faith-based retreats, to name a few. 

Other opportunities to get involved include: undergraduate research, service learning, Sorority and Fraternity Life and student employment. Now is a great time for students to try different groups and learn about different opportunities around campus.  Encourage your student to participate in Eagles Landing Winter .

Need something to look forward to in fall? Family Weekend is September 26th â€“ September 28th, 2025.

A time of transition - for students and families.  During this year, and throughout college, students will move between being in a world that's exciting and needing to know their parents and families will always support them.  Some students will thrive immediately; others wil need more time to get comfortable.  No matter the pace, the next four years are an important transition to independent adulthood.
