Parent and Supporter Events

Mustang Move-In Events

September 2020 Dates TBD

Mustang Move-In is a family experience! Begin your weekend by getting your Mustang settled in their room, meeting new roommates and exploring campus. Before your student meets their Week of Welcome (WOW) group, we invite you to join us at the following events.

Gathering on the Green

Out-of-state parents, supporters and students are invited to celebrate and relax after move-in. This reception is a great opportunity for families from outside of California to meet and mingle, make connections and share tips on how to best support new students who are far from home. Light refreshments will be provided.

Evening with the President

Parents and supporters are invited to enjoy a reception with fellow incoming Mustang families to connect with President Armstrong and celebrate the beginning of your student’s Cal Poly journey. Light refreshments will be provided.
