Experience Day

Join us April 5 for Experience Day 2024

Choosing a graduate school? Experience the O’Neill School before you decide and be confident in your decision. During O’Neill's Experience Day, you’ll meet our faculty, staff, alumni, and current students, as well as other prospective students—all on one of the most beautiful campuses in the country. 

One of the biggest benefits of being an O’Neill student is joining our community of people dedicated to leading for the greater good. Experience Day is the best way to see that community firsthand. We invite you to join us! 

Visiting from out of town?

After Experience Day, and finding that I felt a kinship, even with students not in the program track that I was looking at, I knew this was the place that I wanted to be, with the people who would make a difference
