Preparing for Arrival
All you need to know to prepare your student and your family to arrive on The Hill in late summer. 

 •    Our seasoned Norwich Familes and staff are ready to welcome new families on your arrival days. Check out the NU Families Arrival Receptions we have planned.

 •     Mentor Families — Contact seasoned families whose student is, or was, a student at Norwich. They have been where you are and understand the questions or concerns you may have.


Student Sendoffs and Family Weekend
Key events will also be showcased on this page and these are events not to be missed. If you're new to Norwich, attend a summer sendoff and meet other local families near your hometown. Family Weekend is your chance to experience life  "on the hill" during the Fall.  These and other events are great opportunities for you to hear about and celebrate all things Norwich.
