We've developed a virtual Parent and Family Orientation experience to provide you with the resources needed to help you and your student navigate their transition to Temple. The Orientation Hub will be your one-stop shop for digital content, virtual events, and updates to get started at Temple.

Your virtual Parent and Family Orientation includes the following:

• Temple Preview. Review the same online pre-orientation experience your student is required to complete.
• Spotlight Series. Posts highlighting important campus resources available to view in the Orientation Hub.
• Ask the Experts webinars. Questions are put to representatives from offices within Temple and highlights resources within those departments. 
• Family to Family panels. Learn more about what it’s like to be a family member or supporter of a Temple student from members of our Temple Family Council.
• Ask an Owl panels. Current Temple students are asked questions about the student experience.
