The Tribe Guide is your student's one-stop online source for information about what they need to do before they arrive in Williamsburg this fall. From advising and registration to housing and meal plans, the Tribe Guide is here to help your student make a smooth transition to college life.

Parent & Family Programs is excited to announce our On the Same Page Book Club! Beginning in late June, we will be diving in and reading Kelly Radi’s, Out to Sea: A Parents' Survival Guide to the Freshman Voyage.

In this book club, you can look forward to learning more about the transition from home to college, reflecting on your role as a parent or family member, and contemplating how you can support your student's independence from a distance.

A limited number of copies are available through the William & Mary bookstore. You can also purchase it from Amazon and many secondhand websites.

If you are interested in joining our summer book club, please register via the link below!

To commemorate this exciting time, we are pleased to offer "Class of 2026" gear through our online store.

This summer, we will welcome our fall 2022 new students and their families to the William & Mary family, both virtually and in person! These events offer incoming classmates and their families the opportunity to begin building the strong community that will support them throughout their William & Mary journey.

Space is limited for these events, so each new student and family will be encouraged to register for, and attend, only one welcome event each season.

More information about these events will be released in the upcoming weeks.

William & Mary offers a convenient app that allows you to access essential information anywhere, anytime on your mobile device – available for iOS, Android and mobile web. W&M Mobile provides a variety of campus information and services for the university community. The W&M mobile app will also prove extremely helpful for you and your student when they arrive on campus this fall, with quick links to access their course schedule, grades, and emergency notifications.

The Parent & Family Council (PFC) is a community of parent donors and volunteer leaders who are dedicated to increasing parent engagement and philanthropy, promoting William & Mary, and strengthening the Tribe family. PFC families enhance student life and student success initiatives by giving and raising vital funds for the Parents Fund and programs across the university. As parent ambassadors, PFC members welcome new Tribe families and help them navigate life with a college student. Members also meet faculty and administrators, provide parent perspectives to William & Mary’s senior leadership, and learn about university initiatives and priorities.
