A family at Orientaiton 2023

Family Orientation

Welcome to St. John’s University and to our growing St. John’s family!

Welcome to the St. John's University Family — we are delighted to include you in the family! We are excited to welcome you to campus this summer at one of our Family Orientation programs where you will get to meet and mingle with other St. John's families.

During Family Orientation, you will have opportunities to meet and interact with academic college deans and representatives from University offices. Throughout the day, you will learn about what to expect for your student as you plan for their arrival on campus this fall.

Family Orientation takes place on the same days and times as Student Orientation. The two programs do not intersect on campus but run concurrently. While Family Orientation is not required, it is highly recommended. Please note there is one day specially designed for the family members of our Transfer Students. Register here for Family Orientation.

If you have any questions, please contact the Orientation Office at [email protected] or 718-990-5353.
