We encourage parents and families to take an active role in the university and to partner with us in fostering student success. Attending Family and Supporter Orientation during New Student Orientation is a great first step and by completing our online Ram Ready Orientation Modules you will have access to the same content your students will see in their program, as well as bonus content tailored just for families and supporters. We also recommend following our Parent and Family blog, which will help you stay connected to the VCU community, and signing up for our monthly Ram Family Update newsletter.
