Visit Strake Jesuit to see firsthand what is so special about our community. We offer a variety of opportunities to see our fifty-two acre campus, meet members of our faculty and staff, mingle with current students, and experience a school day in action.

Campus Tours

There's no better way to get to know Strake Jesuit than to visit our campus! For prospective families who are unable to attend Open House, Strake Jesuit offers the opportunity to attend a small group campus tour during a school day.

Several dates are available. Campus tours typically last about two hours and are led by a member of the Admissions team. We are blessed to have a beautiful 52-acre campus, so be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes!

More details will be sent to you prior to your tour date. If you have any questions about campus tours, please email us admissions@strakejesuit.org.

Please note that campus tours are not a requirement of the application process.

Crusader for a Day (Shadowing Program)

Our ‘Crusader for a Day’ program gives 8th grade students interested in attending Strake Jesuit the chance to experience daily school life through a student’s perspective. During this half-day visit, students attend morning classes, eat lunch, and have the opportunity to meet with the Admissions staff and coaches or directors in their areas of interest during Community Time.

Please note that participation in the Crusader for a Day program is not a requirement of the application process.

Crusader for a Day FAQ

List of 5 frequently asked questions.

  • What should my son wear? 

    Generally, visitors tend to feel more comfortable when they dress in our school dress code: shirt with a collar, long pants, belt, dress socks and dress shoes. Tennis shoes are acceptable if dress shoes are not available.
  • Where is the Admissions Office?

    We are located on the first floor of Loyola Hall.  Drop-off will be outside of Loyola Hall and afternoon pick-up will be in the Admissions Office.
  • Is lunch provided? 

    Yes. Your son does not need to bring lunch or lunch money.
  • Do we need to know a current student at Jesuit for our son to be a 'Crusader for a Day'?

    No. Your son will be paired with a Jesuit Ambassador, a current freshman or sophomore at Strake Jesuit, who has similar interests as your son. However, if you know a current student that your son would like to shadow, we will do our best to honor your request. All visits should be scheduled through the Admissions Office.
  • Can you provide a letter for my son's school?

    Yes. The letter will be provided to you when you pick up your son at the end of his visit.
