Parent and Family Orientation Sessions

We want to help with your transition, too! Throughout the Orientation process, parents and guests will meet faculty, staff, administrators and learn about on-campus resources and off-campus partners. In order to accomplish this we will also host specific events for you to participate in.

Family sessions include topics such as:

  • Health and wellness (personal and campus-wide)
  • Co-curricular engagement opportunities and unique campus offerings
  • Student Financial Services
  • Living on campus
  • Academic sessions with faculty and staff

This webpage will continue to be updated, but all official communications regarding summer Orientation will be emailed to your student’s Purchase email address. Please encourage your student to check their Purchase email often.


Summer 2024 Orientation will be on July 16-18.
