Commencement

View information on Valparaiso University's commencement schedule of activities here.

Valpo FOCUS Sessions

At FOCUS, parents get to attend class, live in a residence hall and eat delicious cafeteria food. This is one of the few opportunities they will have to immerse themselves in the college experience. Parents Council members are on hand for a special parents reception and an opportunity to have questions answered. You will receive information from admission regarding your student's FOCUS dates. Stop by the Parents Council booth at the Student Services fair.

Parents Council Welcome Center

Each fall, mom, dad and student pack-up half of the house and move it to Valpo. Parents Council members are on campus during Welcome Weekend to help with refreshments, directions, information, or just a seat and a tissue - the Parents Council Welcome Center provides useful information and a place to rest. Join the Saturday of move-in weekend. Look for the large tent across from Lankenau and Alumni halls.
