Want to welcome new and returning students to campus this fall? Sign up for Opening Weekend using the form below!
Opening Weekend 2025 takes place Aug. 21–24, with students beginning classes on Aug. 25. Participating in Opening Weekend is a fun way to engage with new and returning students and parents. Each year, we receive great feedback from students and families about the fun and welcoming atmosphere on campus—and our volunteers are a big part of that! This is a true University-wide effort, and every one of you is important to making the experience memorable for our students.
If you participated last fall, we will be using the same t-shirts (sapphire blue with “How can I help?” written on the back). If you did not get one last year or no longer have it, please request one here.
