Orientation Webinars

Orientation Webinars offer incoming Bates families an opportunity to get up to speed on their student’s transition to life on campus at Bates. Webinars are held after the start of the academic year so that as students start classes and activities, families have timely information on how to support them and how to remind students of the many resources available to them as they begin their time at Bates.

Dates for the 2023 webinars will be announced by mid-August. Webinars are held on Zoom, and each webinar is recorded and a recording link is shared out to all Class of 2027 parents/guardians via email.

There are no upcoming events.
