Families as Partners
Orientation
Welcome to the Hokie Nation!
At Virginia Tech, we recognize the important role families play in the success and development of our students—and that family can mean many things to students. We look forward to meeting you! We encourage you to participate in Family Orientation, subscribe to the Hokie Family eNews, and to create an account on the Hokie Family Hub, as important information and resources will be shared. We encourage you to participate in family webinars, Admitted Student Visits, and other events throughout the year.
You will:
- Learn what to expect during your student’s first year.
- Learn about resources and programs that can help your student.
- Meet members of the Hokie Nation, including current students and other new families.
- And so much more!
Family Webinar Sessions
Join us for the Family Webinar Sessions, hosted by New Student and Family Programs. You will have the opportunity to hear from multiple university departments and have your frequently asked questions answered. These webinars will include information from Housing Services, Residential Well-being, Academic Advising Initiatives, Dining Services, and the University Bursar.
Find upcoming webinars on our Facebook page. Also, you can view past webinars on our Youtube page.
Families are important to us. Please reach out to a member of the NSFP team to get connected to family engagement.
