almostthere2011: Parents have the choice of coming to orientation and they are encouraged. There are many workshops and sessions that inform parents about financial aid, housing, FERPA, the transitioning of being a first-time or repeat college parent. It all around is a fun experience. Though it is discouraged for parents to be present for the registration period. You’re welcome to build a sample schedule and look over classes before coming to orientation, but when it comes to registration, students are separated from parents.

Sydneyral: as for transfer orientation, it is a one day event therefore parents may or may not choose to attend. Typically parents don’t choose to attend transfer orientation.
