Fall Programs for Families

 

Welcome to the Big Orange Family! We have several opportunities to support you as you prepare for your student’s transition to UT!

TIP: Make sure your student includes your information on their Orientation registration. That is the only way you’ll receive emails regarding programs for families. If you are not receiving emails from our office, contact us at firstyear@utk.edu.


Vol 101 for Families

All new incoming parents and family members can participate in and complete Vol 101: Online Introduction to UT. You’ll receive an email with access to Vol 101 in early June!


Tennessee Family Series

The Tennessee Family Series is a free, virtual opportunity to hear from campus experts as we explore topics crucial for your student’s transition and success. All sessions will be offered live at 7:00 PM EST. Additionally, each session is recorded (and hyperlinked below) to be watched again at a later date.

Below are 2025 recordings. 2026 dates are coming soon!
