Parent & Family Orientation

Parent & Family Orientation helps parents and family members assist their student in the transition from high school to college. Reed's Parent & Family Orientation takes place concurrently with New Student Orientation during fall semester. 

Parent & Family Orientation events are scheduled in coordination with new student move-in and the start of General Student Orientation, which began Monday, August 25. Sessions for parents, family members, and guests took place on Tuesday, August, 26.

Online New Parent & Family Orientation

To give you a better understanding of Reed's academic culture, student support services, and campus resources, we've created an online orientation for new parents and family members. Access online content Reed provided prior to Orientation.
