The College offers parent programs throughout the academic year, beginning with Orientation in August. Mark your calendars for Fall Weekend, our annual celebration for parents, alumni and students usually held in October and make your hotel reservations early.

Parents can also take in the College community by enjoying a wide range of lectures, concerts and athletic events, most of which are free and open to the public. View the campus calendar at http://calendar.conncoll.edu.

Supporting the College through the Connecticut College Fund is another way for parents to get involved and endorse the extraordinary education and opportunities the College provides their sons and daughters. Connecticut College Fund gifts support virtually every aspect of a Connecticut College education — internships, study abroad, faculty-student research, athletics, financial aid, visiting scholars and so much more.
