Sponsored by the Orientation Office, Parent & Family Orientation sessions coincide with both first-year and transfer orientation dates throughout the summer and prior to the start of the spring semester each year. Parents of new and transfer students are strongly encouraged to attend one of the orientation sessions, which are designed to address the most important issues and concerns of new undergraduate families.

For more information on Parent and Family Orientation and to register for a session, visit the Orientation Office website at www.orientation.umd.edu.
