New Student Receptions

Meet the cast of your next four years.

During the summer, New Student Receptions will be held across the country so new students and their parents/families can meet each other as well as current students and staff. You may attend the reception(s) that is most convenient, whether it is in your hometown or elsewhere (attendance at more than one is certainly permitted). Preregistration is required.

• Please check the website frequently as new dates and locations will be added.
• Once event details are finalized, the city name will be linked to an RSVP page for that event.
• Dates and locations are subject to change, and registration may be closed if we reach maximum capacity.
