Welcome New Students!
We look forward to welcoming new students to campus for Anselmian Beginnings Part 1.
Our June Orientation offers sessions for parents, guardians, and other primary supporters. New students will connect with faculty from their major, register for fall classes, learn about academic and community expectations, and meet their classmates, peer transfer students, and other peer leaders.
Meet Our Anselmians

"I believe with all my heart that today’s world needs Saint Anselm College, a place that is infused with the Catholic and Benedictine values of community, hospitality and love, where the humanities, arts and sciences and professional programs like nursing, criminal justice and business build on our liberal arts core rather than compete with it. We need a place where you don’t have to choose between career outcomes and life outcomes. That place is Saint Anselm."
In the classroom and in the community, an Anselmian education will challenge you to find your best self.

“Turns out what I like most about science is sharing it with other people. Teaching it, and sharing it with others. … It’s important to me that everyone can feel some connection to science and see that it is understandable, it is reachable, it is even doable.”

Step into the Forest of Arden, where love disguises itself, identities are transformed, and laughter waits around every corner. William Shakespeare’s beloved comedy As You Like It is a sparkling journey of romance, wit, music, and self-discovery.
Banished from court, the spirited Rosalind flees into the forest disguised as a young man, leading to a whirlwind of mistaken identities, clever wordplay, and unexpected romance. Along the way, shepherds fall in love, fools speak wisdom, and hearts are tested in one of Shakespeare’s most joyful and enduring plays.
Filled with humor, poetry, and the famous line “All the world’s a stage,” As You Like It celebrates freedom, friendship, and the transformative power of love.
Join us for an enchanting evening of comedy, music, and theatrical magic perfect for audiences of all ages.
Love will find a way… as you like it.
