Dear WashU parents and families of returning students,
We are excited to welcome your student back to campus later this week—campus just isn’t the same without them, and we can’t wait for the energy they bring each year.
In this special edition of Family Ties, you’ll find helpful details about what to expect during returning student Move-in Days. Whether your student is returning for their second year or preparing for their final semester, we are here to help make the transition a smooth one.
If you have any questions about the information shared, please do not hesitate to reach out to Residential Life or Dining Services—they are ready to assist.
As we kick off a new academic year, we would also love to hear from you! Please take 5–10 minutes to complete our 2025 Family Programs Beginning of Year Survey. Your thoughts and feedback help us to improve the ways we connect with and support your family throughout the year.
Thank you for being such an important part of our WashU community—we’re so glad you’re with us.
Warmly,
Anna “Dr. G” Gonzalez
Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs
