University of Michigan Parents & Family Facebook Group

Your student isn't the only one this semester who gets to join cool campus clubs and groups! The @UMichParents Facebook group* can keep you informed of pertinent university information and connected to fellow U-M parents and family just like you!

*This Facebook group is hosted by Michigan Social and not Parent & Family Weekend. 


Football Ticket Information

Many Parent & Family Weekend presentations, receptions, tours, and events are included with your registration fee! You will also have the option to purchase tickets a la carte for activities like the U-M v. Minnesota football game, Parent & Family Weekend Tailgate, G-fest performance, and more.

If your family is committed to attending the U-M v. Minnesota football game, there are two options to purchase tickets:

  1. You may purchase tickets through Michigan Athletics as soon as they become available. 
  2. A limited number of football tickets, in the lowest cost tier, will be available for purchase during Parent & Family Weekend registration in August 2024. However, the Parent & Family Weekend team cannot guarantee that tickets will be available for every interested family as they typically sell out within a few hours.

Letter from VP Harmon

Dear Wolverine Families,

There are three very special times in the academic year when we typically get to welcome parents and families to campus: move-in, end-of-year activities, and of course, Parent & Family Weekend.

The special time that you share with your Wolverine during Parent & Family Weekend is unique because it is a time that focuses entirely on welcoming you—the ones who made and defined their first home. While Michigan may become their “home away from home” during their academic career, we know that everything you have done for them, all of the support and encouragement that you have shown them throughout their lives until now, is precisely what prepared them to join the Leaders & Best. And it’s our privilege and pleasure to host you on campus and help your student show you what they love so much about being here.

We are grateful that you have chosen to entrust your students to the University of Michigan. The lessons they learn here go far beyond the classroom, and the bonds they form with their fellow Wolverines will last a lifetime. This weekend, we invite you to experience this with them.

Warmly,

Martino Harmon, Ph.D.     
Vice President for Student Life
