Colgate in Focus: A Diversity Open House
Colgate University students are challenged to see themselves honestly and critically within a global and historical perspective. A Colgate education is also designed to inspire students to be engaged citizens and to strive for a just society. These two specific aims within the "13 Goals of a Colgate Education" are exemplified at our annual Colgate in Focus open house. 

This program invites a talented group of high school seniors who have overcome significant challenges in their journey to pursue post-secondary education to our campus to gain insight into the Colgate experience first-hand. Students living in the United States who identify as low-income, first-generation, or other traditionally underrepresented backgrounds may apply. The priority application deadline is June 3, 2019. Applications are accepted through September 5 and decisions are provided on a rolling basis beginning in late July.
