Reserve Family Space

Your student will reserve your space for the Family Connection program when they reserve a spot for themselves at Lobo Orientation.

Getting Ready

Just make sure you and your student agree on which date to attend (based on your schedules and what dates are still available) and decide if you want to take part in the Tag Team option.

Remember that this is a concurrent program, separate from Lobo Orientation. You will not be with your student who will be attending their own student orientation program. The Family Connection program will recess at 5:00 p.m. on Day One and will resume early on Day Two. Your student will be involved in the student program all evening on Day One and will stay on campus overnight (if attending Sessions 1-10).

To signup for the Family Connection Program

Have your student sign into the reservation system.  If it is your student's first time logging into the system, he or she will need to enter personal information, complete a questionnaire, and select dates.  

The second to last step of the reservation process is labeled "Guests" and this is where you will be registered for the Family Connection Program.  On this screen, click on Add A Guest (see below).  A pop up menu will appear where information about the first guest should be added.  Once the information for the first guest has been added, repeat the process for additional guests (if applicable).

Tag Team

If you intend to do the Tag Team Option, then select the checkbox next to the line This guest would like to participate as a "Tag Team" (see below) for both guests attending Family Connection.

You will see all all parts of the student reservation, including guests, on the My Reservation screen.
