Register for Family Orientation

UMass Dartmouth's Family Orientation is a one-day program for parents, guardians, or significant others of our first-year students. You will meet with our professional staff, student Orientation Leaders, and learn firsthand about university culture, policies and programs to help residential and commuter students succeed.  Family Orientation is on the same day as your student's orientation.  If your student is attending the overnight session, your Family Orientation takes place on Day 1 of their session.
