RCIA is the process of becoming a member of the Catholic Church as an adult. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops describes it as a process in which participants study the Gospel of Jesus Christ, learn about the Triune God and the Catholic Church.  Through this period of learning, if the participant professes faith they will continue onto the sacraments to be fully brought into the Catholic Church.

RCIA Classes begin each fall at the Newman Center; if it is later in the semester, please still reach out! To enroll or to find out more, fill out your information below! If you are not a student or involved with our ministry, we will point you to your parish.
