Throughout the year, Parent and Family Programs welcomes parents and families to events that connect them with their students, as well as the wider College community.
2024 Family and Friends Weekend
Specific schedule information and registration will be available in August. The program runs from noon on October 18 to noon on October 20. We highly recommend securing hotels or other housing options early! Please contact our office if you have any questions at parents@emerson.edu.
Undergraduate Student & Parent Orientation
Congratulations on your student's acceptance to Emerson College! We are excited to introduce you to Emerson’s unique community, innovative campus, and the city of Boston. We encourage you to Explore, Engage, and Embrace Emerson.
Spring Family Day
Spring Family Day is a mini Family Weekend, specifically designed for those with new students who begin at Emerson in the Spring semester, but is open to all. We'll have some on and off-campus offerings, a chance to sample dining hall food, and explore the city with your student. A previous participant called it, “a great excuse to visit my student“! Yes, yes it is.
Commencement
Join us for Commencement to celebrate your student's graduation. The ceremony is held annually in May.
