The transition to college is an exciting time that involves the whole family. We encourage family and friends to join us this summer to learn more about how the transition to Wheaton College is a collaborative experience between the student, the college, and the student’s family.

Summer 2026 Date is Thursday, June 18th

There will be virtual programming offered throughout the summer for students and families who are unable to attend.  More information to follow.

    • Registration

      Family Orientation takes place on campus at the same time as Academic Orientation.  Students are able to invite up to two guests to attend Family Orientation and will register their guests on the same registration form that they complete for Academic Orientation.

      Schedule

      Family Orientation will occur on the same day as your student’s Academic Orientation – MAP. This program is offered to the families and friends of our incoming students to help them acclimate to Wheaton College to enable them to coach their student through their new experience on campus.

      Schedules are still in development for 2026.
