2024 National Jesuit Student Leadership Conference

Student leaders from all Jesuit higher education institutions in the United States and Belize are invited to attend the conference. This is an appropriate opportunity for students who are beginning leadership roles within a variety of areas including orientation, student government, residence life, student organizations, diversity and inclusion, service learning and more. All delegations are accompanied by an advisor from the institution. Advisors will lead their delegations through reflection throughout the conference and are also invited to participate in the advisor track which is a series of workshops coordinated by JASPA.

**Please note that each delegation is required to travel with at least one staff advisor from their institution.

The cost of registration per student delegate and advisor includes all meals (except one dinner), giveaway items, programming, and housing accommodations in the residence halls (including linens).

Yes, early arrival (on July 15) or late departure (on July 21) can be coordinated with the conference advisors. Please email leadership@jcu.edu to arrange your accommodations for early arrival or late departure.
