At NC State, we view the relationship we have with our students' parents and families as a partnership - a partnership created to help students be successful. We also know that when parents are informed, students benefit. Therefore, we would like to invite you to a special program just for parents during New Student Orientation.

We offer programs for families of students entering their first year of college and for families of students transferring from another college or university. Please click on the corresponding link to the left to learn more about your respective orientation program.

Recent research at NC State shows that, in most cases, students whose parents participate in Parents' Orientation have higher grades and are more likely to graduate than students whose parents do not.


Over 70% of students who attend their scheduled orientation have parents and families members who attend Parents' Orientation.
