Day One Advice For Parents And Families

  • Is Day One required for parents?
    • While not mandatory, we strongly encourage at least one parent or guardian to attend. There are specific sessions just for you!
  • What will parents do during the day?
    • You will meet university leadership, learn about on-campus resources for your student, and get tips for supporting your student through the college journey.
