Join religious groups on campus
Faith-based student groups and clubs are among the most numerous and active on campus and welcome newcomers. Find a community through the MORSL directory or look for culture and country-based clubs through to expand your horizons by learning about a new culture or get a taste of home!
Meet like-minded students Â
Each year, student groups collaborate to offer multi-denominational froshes outside the typical Frosh that align with students’ religious practices such as (Christian, non-alcoholic), Halal Frosh (Muslim) and Jewish Frosh. Want to stay updated on the latest events for you?
Other ways to enjoy frosh
Outdoor Frosh offers incoming Â鶹AV students a safe, inclusive and adventurous way to spend frosh week. With hiking, biking, climbing, swimming, and more, Outdoors frosh is an alternative to Faculty Froshes and SSMU Frosh, which tend to focus on drinking. Outdoors Frosh offers physically-active events that center less around alcohol. Â
