Orientation and Transition Programs

The Office of Parent Programs at UNT was established to enhance the college experience for both parents and students and help build sustaining relationships between parents and UNT. Our goal is to provide parents and families with information to help better understand their student's life at UNT. We believe partnering with family members supports student success. 

Parent Orientation

Parent Orientation is a special program that runs concurrently with New Student Orientation, Transfer Orientation, or Early Eagle Orientations. The program is optional, but highly encouraged. Through this program, parents have the opportunity to learn about the many offices, services, academic programs UNT has to offer.

Here's what parents are saying:

UNT Parent Association
