Fresh Fest

Mazel Tov – you are officially a Terrier and BU Hillel cannot wait to meet you!

Fresh Fest is Hillel’s orientation program – aimed at helping new students adjust to life on BU’s campus. We will show you everything you need to know about Jewish life on campus and have a blast doing it. Join Fresh Fest and you’ll have 100 new friends before classes even start.

Coming to a large campus like Boston University, especially without orientation can be intimidating, but Fresh Fest will help you feel at home. Meet upper and underclassmen whose passions are diverse – sports, art, music, food, community service, prayer, holidays, schmoozing, traveling to Israel, and more. Your Jewish journey starts today – see you at Fresh Fest!
