Family & Friends Orientation Events

Our Family & Friends Orientation is an excellent opportunity to learn more about your student’s experience at MassBay. The program covers a wide range of topics, including:

  • Inside the Classroom: Understanding the academic experience
  • Outside the Classroom: Campus life and student support services
  • Virtual Campus Supports: Resources available online for student success
  • Administrative Services: Important information about registration, financial aid, and more

This is also the perfect opportunity to ask questions and take a guided campus tour.

The Family & Friends Orientation is designed for parents, spouses, or other adult family members. We kindly ask that you do not bring young children to the event to ensure a focused experience for all participants.
