Interested in attending Xavier? Come check us out!  


Xavier offers two different immersive student experiences for interested 8th, 9th or 10th- grade students. Students can have one or both experiences. They offer an opportunity to experience a typical day at Xavier with our students. Our guests will attend classes, meet teachers, coaches, counselors, and get to know our Xavier community. Shadowing is not mandatory, but it is a great opportunity to experience what it’s like to be a Xavier student.
