Summer Family Weekend, is planned by the Sophomore Class in partnership with the Collis Center for Student Involvement and the Office of Family Giving & Engagement. The weekend offers an excellent opportunity for parents and families to enjoy the Hanover summer and experience the Dartmouth that your student has come to know after their time here.
Here are answers to some frequently asked questions about registration:

Free on-site registration will alsos be available but pre-registration is encouraged. Please note that other campus departments may be hosting events that require a paid ticket (i.e. productions at the Hopkins Center, canoe rentals, etc.). The schedule will specify which events have an additional cost.
