Kick off your weekend at Champlain with some fun! Join our Student Engagement team for an evening of activities and socializing. Meet some of your future classmates, get a feel for the kind of events that take place on campus every week, and maybe even win some prizes! This is the perfect time to get to know Champlain and other admitted students before Saturday’s events.
What students can expect:
For all family members, we hope you’ll join us for a President’s Reception to celebrate this monumental time in your student’s life. Chat with Champlain President Alex Hernandez, meet the people that make our community so special, and mingle with other family members who are going through the same college transition experience as you!

Deposit in Three Easy Steps
Whether it was the stunning campus, the world-class academics, or the welcoming community that convinced you Champlain is where you’re meant to be, we’re here to help you make it a reality. Visit our on-campus deposit station to officially enroll as a Champlain student.
We’ll have multiple computers open for you to confirm your admission and submit your enrollment deposit. Members of our admissions team will be available to support and answer any questions you may have. In just a few short clicks, you’ll officially be enrolled at Champlain College.
And that’s it – you’re officially enrolled as Champlain student. Now it’s time to party! That’s why we’ll have popcorn and donuts, cotton candy, music, plenty of cheering staff and students, and our very own mascot Chauncey all there to help celebrate this big occasion. You did it, and now you can spend the rest of the day (or the rest of the year) celebrating.
Today’s the day! We’re kicking things off with a welcome speech from President Hernandez, student speakers, and the chance to meet other members of our Admissions team and Champlain staff.
You’ll park at our Lakeside Campus before hopping on a shuttle to the famous Flynn Theater in downtown Burlington. Once you arrive, we’ll have breakfast, music, trivia, games, and more to get your morning started right. From there, we’ll send you and your family off to the next stop on your fun-filled day!
Learn about why our career-focused education makes Champlain graduates so sought after in the job market.
Discover the ins and outs of your major, classes, opportunities, and more from faculty and current students. Start getting to know the other students in your major. And depending on your major of interest, participate in an interactive activity ranging from technical showcases, to game playtesting, to faculty-made escape rooms, and more.
Learn how you can get involved on campus. Our Information Fair and Core Convivium will be packed with amazing people to help answer your questions and make you feel at home.
Take a tour of our beautiful hillside campus and explore our academic buildings, library, and more—including our dining hall and its out-of-this-world view! Find all the nooks and crannies of the place you’ll call home!
We’ll also have a special residence hall tour available, so you can get a closer look at the Victorian-era mansions where first-year students live (every room is unique and different!), as well as our contemporary housing for upper-year students.
On the Sunday following the April Admitted Student Event, we welcome you to visit our campus in Montreal, Canada. Learn about academic opportunities, student life, and the career-focused experiences available to students who study abroad—seamlessly—at our Montreal campus.
This program will begin at 12:00 PM (ET) and conclude by 3:00 PM. Your drive from Burlington should be under two hours; we can’t wait to meet you there!
PLEASE NOTE: Valid passports are required to cross the border between the United States and Canada.
