Parent & Family Engagement is pleased to welcome your new transfer student and your family to WashU. We serve as a primary contact for supporting both your transfer student and family in the transition to the university.

What to expect

In August, you will receive via email the first edition of Family Ties, the e-newsletter that bridges the information gap between Washington University in St. Louis family members and life on campus.

What we do

Parent & Family Engagement hosts a number of events and provides resources for you and your new student. Below are some ways we help you acclimate to the community.
