Information for Parents

Once admitted…what do we do now?

First of all….visit! We have Open House Events and tours as well as online chats available to answer your questions and give you a chance to talk with faculty, staff and students. For more visit information click here.

Ready to say yes?? If your son or daughter knows he or she wants to officially become a Terp, it’s time to confirm. Students can confirm their enrollment by clicking here. This includes paying a $200 deposit and completing the on-campus housing request form, if applicable.

After confirming enrollment, students should sign up for an orientation where they will meet with an advisor, register for classes, and become acquainted with the University. To sign up for orientation, please click here.

Please view our video message from the President of the University of Maryland!

Now you are almost ready to send your student off to college, but the questions don’t stop there, and the Office of Parent and Family Affairs can help you make the transition.
