We look forward to welcoming Class of 2016 families to Dartmouth. Whether you are accompanying a new student from Vermont or Thailand, we recognize that the transition to Dartmouth is significant for any family.
Please keep checking this page for updates!
The events for parents and families on Tuesday, September 4 are not mandatory or required. We know that not all families can be present on Move-In Day - indeed, many students will be here without parents or families. We will make sure to post, on this page, links to resources and opportunities so that information can be shared with all families, so don't worry if you aren't able to be here on September 4.
Below you will find a brief outline of what you can expect, should you be able to join us on Tuesday, September 4.
Please know that we look forward to meeting you whenever you come to campus!
Best wishes,
New Student Orientation Team
