Dear Parents,
Whether you are new to the Wheaton parent community or a parent veteran, the Parent Engagement team wants to keep you in the loop with information that is helpful for both you and your student. We encourage you to keep your contact information updated because, in the days and months ahead, important information will be communicated via email and through our monthly Parent Newsletter.
Most parents have questions along the way and if you can’t find answers to your questions on this website, feel free to email us at parents@wheaton.edu and we will help point you in the right direction.
We are here to support you as you support your student!
Sincerely,
The Parent Engagement Team
The role of Parent Engagement is to come alongside parents as they encourage the growth and success of their student through the college years.
At times, the path to graduation can be as challenging for a family as it is for their student; that's why we're dedicated to connecting you with the right resources to support your student and to ensure that the whole family has a positive Wheaton experience. You can count on us to help you stay informed and engaged.

Dear Parents,
In a “normal” year, Wheaton College Orientation Weekend is full of in-person events and programs for parents and students, but as we all know, this year we will need to work together in new ways to enable your student(s) to have the best possible on-campus experience. In order to keep our campus COVID-Safe, Thunder-Strong, all Parent Orientation will be held online this fall.
