The parent & family program is an optional program that is separate from the student orientation program. For Summer 2020, the Parent and Family Orientation Program will be held online and is designed to answer your administrative, academic, and transition questions.

Our online Parent & Family Orientation Program will provide parent and family members the opportunity to review presentations, videos, and resources on our online Parent & Family Orientation portal. Our portal is now live and can be accessed by visiting ter.ps/terpfamori. In addition to our online portal, Parent & Family members will have the opportunity to participate in live, virtual sessions to meet with academic advisors, current students, and various departments on campus from Resident Life, Dining Services, Financial Aid, and many more.

While there is no cost to participate, we strongly encourage parents & family members to register for this program, to receive updates throughout the summer.  You can register when your student registers by using the online portal or by filling out this form.
