The Class of 2027 are the first undergraduate students to start their education with the new university name.
ROCHESTER — Nazareth University is welcoming its new students to campus for Move-in Day on Wednesday, August 23 – they hold the special distinction of being the first undergraduate students to start their education with the new university name! The new first-year and transfer students will spend the day moving into their residence halls, enjoying a welcome picnic with President Beth Paul, and capping off their first night on campus with a special convocation, candlelight ceremony, and a carnival-style Flyer Fest. On Thursday, the new Golden Flyers head out into the Rochester community for Naz in Action. The students will be assigned to one of more than 30 community partners for a day of service. Returning students move in August 26-27, and all Nazareth students begin classes on Monday, August 28.
