Welcome, families and friends!
Fall is an exciting time on Emmanuel's campus: The leaves are changing, classes are in full swing and students have settled in for a year of exploration and discovery that will shape the course of their lives.
Each year at this time, we welcome families and friends to campus to experience the Emmanuel community and the city of Boston for Emmanuel College Family Weekend. Family Weekend will be from Friday, October 4–Sunday, October 6, 2024.
