Prospective students will soon be able to experience the intellectual, spiritual, and community life of Thomas Aquinas College, New England, at its Fall Open House.
“We are looking forward to welcoming high school juniors and seniors to Northfield on November 14-16,” says John Jost, Director of Admissions on the New England campus. “The Fall Open House is an invaluable opportunity for prospective students to gain insight into the unique experience at Thomas Aquinas College. It allows them to engage with our faculty, explore our Great Books curriculum, and get a sense of our vibrant community.”

At the heart of the College’s Open Houses are class visits, where attendees will witness the Discussion Method in action and have the opportunity to meet some of the College’s tutors. “Attendees will also experience participating in a class led by faculty members, listen to talks and presentations, and have the chance to ask questions,” Mr. Jost explains. “Everything we do is aimed at helping them make informed decisions about their future.”
Since the College’s academic program depends entirely on student participation, quality discussions rely on the mutual friendship of the student body. Attendees will experience how campus life strengthens that friendship through camaraderie on the athletic field, at meals, and in the residence halls. They can look forward to fun afternoons participating in student-led activities, including a school dance. Additionally, they will also get a taste of the community’s strong devotion to the Catholic faith, as two Masses and the Rosary are offered every day.

On Saturday, November 16, the last day of the Open House, families are welcome to join for the 11:30 am Mass in Our Mother of Perpetual Help Chapel and lunch afterwards in Gould Commons.
“We hope our guests will leave having experienced at least a sliver of what Thomas Aquinas College has to offer its students,” adds Mr. Jost. “Enjoy the program! Don’t leave without having asked what questions you have about the education — or life afterward!”
