Catholic Students Association (CaSA)

You Belong Here

The Catholic Students Association is the relationship between Roman Catholic students and friends and the Sheil Catholic Center at Northwestern University. CaSA is the first line of outreach and hospitality to Catholic students, fosters communication between Catholic students and the Sheil Catholic Center, and, with the Center, provides opportunities for prayer, fellowship, formation, and service. CaSA aids the director/chaplain of Sheil and the Sheil Leadership Council in their efforts to create a more unified community of faith.

Get Connected

CaSA meets every Thursday at 8:00 p.m. during the academic year. We invite all undergrads to join us. Newcomers are always welcome! Email CaSA here to be added to the listserv to get notice of meetings.

Would you like to be a First Night Volunteer in September 2022 to help welcome incoming Catholic students? Whether or not you have attended First Night in the past, we invite you to consider taking part in the growth of the Sheil community. You would need to be available on Sunday, September 11th between 2:00 and 9:00 p.m. Housing is available that Sunday evening for those who need it who may not be able to move into their dorm yet. Planning takes place in this spring quarter. Click here to learn more and sign up.
