Just for the Family

Vandal Friday is not just for students. Parents and family are welcome to join the fun. Take advantage of this opportunity to get to know the University of Idaho – your student’s future home away from home.

There is no cost for parents and family members to participate in the program. Make your hotel reservations early. Accommodations fill up fast.

Attend special information sessions for parents.

Learn about everything from financing your child's education to adjusting to being a parent of a college student.

Meet faculty and staff.

Get to know your student's future professors and other University representatives.

Network with other Vandal families.

We invite you to a special parent social on Thursday evening from 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. You'll have the opportunity to meet and mingle with other parents, faculty, staff and current U-Idaho parents before Friday's main event.
