The StFX Open House is your opportunity to discover what it's like to live and learn on Canada's most beautiful campus. There's no better way to imagine yourself as a future student than to experience StFX in person.

We have an interactive, fun-filled day planned for you and your parents/supporters where you will: 

• Learn about academic programs, student services, and residence options
• Attend faculty presentations
• Explore campus and take a guided tour of residences, classrooms, and student spaces. All 1st year students are guaranteed a room in residence! 
• Enjoy a delicious free brunch at Morrison Hall, our main dining facility. Brunch is available by reservation, with times available on the hour from 8:00 am – 12:00 pm. You can select a reservation time when you register!
