In order to attend an off-campus retreat as a sponsored student by the Office for Religious and Spiritual Life, please submit the following application to spirituallife@oxy.edu. Application dates vary for each retreat -- see the detailed retreat description for more information. If you discover a retreat or experiential spiritual program that you would like to attend, or think that students could benefit from, please contact ORSL with your suggestion.
