Converse Admissions

Converse Admissions Make things happen. It’s more than a challenge. It’s an invitation, an awakening, an acknowledgment of our—and your— potential. Come visit us to see for yourself.

So many things are possible here at Converse. It’s not surprising, given our rich history of enabling students “to see clearly, decide wisely and act justly." There is also our energetic commitment to being creative and collaborative in every pursuit, and that means emphasizing experiential learning through internships, student research, leadership development, community service, and study-travel. At Converse, we dare students to dream big, to get involved and to make things happen.
