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.
