Summer 2026 Family Orientation Schedule
Family Orientation is a concurrent session that runs simultaneously to the Freshman Orientation program. Student and Family Orientation are two entirely separate programs, and students will see their family member(s) during the lunchtime resource fair to catch up about their day!
Most Family Orientation programming, including check-in, will be hosted in the Student Activities Center (SAC), Multipurpose Room (MPR).
