VIRTUAL MAC DAY

Virtual Mac Day is dedicated time for newly admitted students and families to hear directly from professors and students. Get a glimpse into living and learning in the Macalester community and connect with those who are ready to share stories and experiences. High school juniors considering Macalester are also welcome to join.

Meet your Classmates

Have you introduced yourself on Brightcrowd? Nearly 500 students admitted to Mac in early rounds already have a page where you can learn about their interests, connect via socials, and see favorite photos.

In April there will be three in-person Mac Day events for admitted students. You are welcome to attend both virtual and in-person events as your schedule allows.
