Do parents come to orientation?

Bringing your parents, transfer or incoming freshman, allow your parents to have their USC-specific question answered by staff members, allows them to become familiar with the area/campus and also plants the little seed of USC pride they might develop.

Not to mention, since you’re screenwriting, it would be best for at least one parent to come because one afternoon, you and whatever other BFAs attending the orientation are sat down with your parents and the BFA advisor and run through all 4 years. Everyone, even the transfer kids, had their parents there; it was good because parents were able to ask questions about the program/job prospects/etc.
