It’s an exciting time for your family.

Transition to the Capital University family is not just for first-year students. Our orientation program is designed to provide parents and families the opportunity to connect with faculty, staff, and current students. At Capital University, we strongly believe that parents are partners in their student's new journey.

We plan both joint and separate sessions during summer orientation for parents and families. You will learn more about the programs and services Capital University provides to help your student to transition. You will also have time to meet with faculty, staff, and other parents and families.

Remember you’re not just joining Capital University - you are joining the Cap Family.

Orientation Checklist

There are a few things your student needs to do before orientation. We give them an orientation checklist to help keep them on track, but we thought you might want to take a look at it too.
