Parents and guests are valued members of our Maverick family. New Maverick Orientation is the first step in your exciting new journey for you and your student. The New Maverick Orientation Parent/Guest Experience is designed to acquaint you with the University and all it has to offer.
The Parent/Guest Experience occurs simultaneously with the new student program. While your student is required to attend New Maverick Orientation, the parent experience is optional, but highly encouraged.
Here you can receive Parent & Guest assistance during New Maverick Orientation, purchase your Maverick Parent & Family Association Memberships, and Maverick Family Merchandise.
We know you are critical partners in your student’s education, and we understand the importance of building a strong relationship with you as soon as your student joins our campus community. We know that the more informed and connected you are as a family, the better we can work together to help our students achieve their goals. Discover how we can build a partnership for your student’s success at UTA.
Family support is a vital part of college student success. Learn more about your new role in supporting your student as we explore and celebrate this new milestone together. We will cover common concerns of college families and best practices that promote being an effective trusted advisor.
Gather in our reserved Parent & Guest section in the Connections Café for lunch. This is a wonderful way to get to know other families and the Parent & Family Services staff.
Be sure to enjoy a cup of coffee when you arrive and take a moment to meet other families at this activity hosted by New Maverick Orientation and Parent & Family Services.
Come to your first Maverick Family Business Meeting to learn how to navigate the Maverick Family Membership Portal, how to obtain guest access to MyMav, and begin the next steps to supporting your student’s academic journey.
UT Arlington recognizes that parents play a vital role in their student’s success. The Office of Parent & Family Services was created to keep parents informed and involved in their student’s college experience. Check out the Parent & Family Services website for more information about resources and services, including the Maverick Parent and Family Association, various scholarship opportunities, and the annual Parent and Family Weekend.
On behalf of the University of Texas at Arlington, I’d like to welcome you and your admitted student to the Maverick Family!
