Parents

We would like to welcome you, as well as your student, to the St. John’s community! As a university we are dedicated to making your student’s individual experience both educationally challenging and personally satisfying. We believe that in order for your student to be successful we must build a strong partnership which is why we welcome your participation in Parent Orientation.

We strongly encourage you to attend Orientation with your student. During Parent Orientation you will learn about the University’s many services and the opportunities we provide to engage our students in the St. John’s community both academically as well as socially. You will also have the opportunity to meet and speak with faculty, administrators, and staff from varying departments across campus. Some of the key offerings at Parent Orientation include academics, career development, student engagement, public safety, community service, among many others. Some of our Orientation Leaders, who are current students, will spend the day with you and provide their views about what it is like to be a student and part of the St. John’s community. We believe you will find Parent Orientation to be a great chance to share in the excitement of going to college.

We look forward to meeting you!

Sincerely,

New Student Orientation
