For Freshmen and Transfer Students.  The First Year Retreat is held at Angeles Crest Christian Camp, which is located in the mountains of the Angeles Crest National Forest above the city of La Cañada. With a light-hearted and relaxing atmosphere the First Year Retreat is a great opportunity for first year students and leaders to meet each other, form new friendships, reflect and pray together, and look forward to their time at Loyola Marymount University. This is a large retreat that is a great way for freshmen and transfer students to meet one another in a relaxed and reflective environment. Many students say that during First Year Retreat they form friendships that last throughout their time at LMU. This is a perfect way to begin the year and your time at LMU. Don’t miss it!
