Panther for a Day
Become a Panther for a Day
We can tell you all about the Abbey brotherhood, but the best way to understand it is to experience it for yourself. We invite you to spend a day on campus as a "Panther for a Day."
During your visit, you will be paired with a student host in the grade you are applying for. Available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM, this is your chance to truly step into the shoes of a St. Anselm's student. You'll attend six classes, meet our monks and faculty, enjoy lunch on us, and get the inside scoop on what it really means to be an "Abbey Boy."For Parents
While your son is visiting classes, you are warmly invited to take a campus tour with one of our admissions counselors to see our community in action and ask any questions you might have.
