First Year Families
You Still Have a Role Here
At McDaniel we recognize that the college experience is truly a family one. While it’s students who are in the classroom and getting involved on campus, the family at home is the cheerleader on the sideline who plays an equally important role.
One of the most important ways to engage in the family experience is to register for Parent Preview, McDaniel's two-day summer orientation program for families of incoming students. Parent Preview will be held July 14-15 and July 19-20, 2013. Priority Registration deadline is May 30, so register early for your preferred date.
We’re always here to answer your questions and address any concerns that arise. Feel free to contact us any time. Meanwhile, you can learn a lot right here about Residence Life, Health Services and Orientation.
