<p>Congrats DadTimes2! Awesome feeling isn’t it! My D is a freshman at NU. Wonderful school.
I believe (and correct me if I am wrong momcares) the BIGGER decision may be accepting the offer for admission!</p>
<p>Wildcat Welcome Week is the same as New Student Orientation. They do have orientation programs for parents too during the first couple days of welcome week.
Family Weekend is separate from welcome week and is sometime in the fall.</p>
<p>Momcares is correct about booking hotels for welcome week, etc. Evanston is a nice place to hang out in!!!</p>
