Connection Day 2022
Connection Day
Connection Day is a great chance to get to know Alvernia faculty, staff and your fellow students. You will receive tons of valuable information about academics, financial services, student engagement and more. You will meet with an advisor to create your fall schedule and have your photo taken for your Alvernia student ID. Parents and families will also have special sessions.
