Orientation for Parents and Families
Welcome to the Tufts community! On your student's move-in day, there will be optional programs for parents and families.
Pre-Orientation Move-In will be Friday, August 22. New Student Move-In for students not participating in Pre-Orientation will be Wednesday, August 27. Orientation begins on Wednesday, August 27 as well. More information regarding Move-In and Orientation will be added on these pages throughout the academic year.
We look forward to welcoming you and your student to campus later this summer!
Programming for Parents and Families
Programming for parents and families will be offered during Pre-Orientation arrival/move-in and Orientation arrival/move-in. Participation is optional, but parents and families coming for their student's arrival/move-in day are encouraged to attend. Programming is the same on both move-in dates.
During move in days, Tufts Dining centers will be open for breakfast and lunch. You are welcome to accompany your student and experience Tufts dining!
