JUNE 2018
Welcome to Babson!
Each month, you'll receive the New Parent and Family Newsletter, which shares news, stories, events, and reminders from all aspects of the Babson experience. As your student prepares to come to campus in the fall, please keep an eye out for these newsletters, as they contain important dates and information. We look forward to meeting you during move-in on August 23 and 24!
Save the Date for Family Orientation
Following student move-in, parents and families are invited to a variety of sessions on August 24 and 25 to acclimate you to the Babson campus and community. Take the time to meet faculty, staff, and other families while we introduce you to the many resources available to you and your student here at Babson.
Course Registration: July 17 & 18
Registration will take place for incoming first-year students on Tuesday, July 17, and Wednesday, July 18. Students are divided into registration groups based on last name, and each group is assigned a specific day and time. On the Babson Hub, students can find a registration tutorial and helpful guides and planners for selecting courses for the fall semester. *Babson login credentials required
