Clubs and Programs

Get Involved on Campus

CHC offers many clubs and activities making it possible for our students to be actively involved on campus and within the community. Students who join our clubs get to have fun, share their interests, build their resumes, and network with their peers.

Clubs & Activities

CHC offers so many clubs and activities, which is why our students are so involved on campus and within the community. Students who join our clubs get to have fun, share their interests, build their resumes, and network with their peers. And if students don’t see a club that interests them, they can create their own as at Chestnut Hill College. Starting a club is easy: All it takes is you, three of your friends, and a faculty/staff advisor. Clubs and activities are the lifeblood of student engagement and we can’t wait to see which of your passions will come to life in our community!
