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.

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!
