Sibling program
Do you plan to bring younger siblings or family members to Orientation? We are happy to provide a program for siblings aged 9 and older during the first day of Orientation. During the day we will have the opportunity to play games, learn about the Northern Arizona University campus, and create a special surprise for your older sibling or family member who is going off to college. The program includes lunch. The siblings will then rejoin their parents in the evening.
The sibling program departs from the Parent Session at Cline Library at 9:45am. On day 2 siblings will spend the day with their parents. If you are interested in signing up a sibling or younger family member for the Sibling Program please visit our Parent & Family Orientation registration page.
