The Office of Parent Engagement provides Elon parents and families with the information, communications, connections and programs to support their student’s undergraduate career at Elon. We create opportunities for parents and families to develop an Elon experience of their own so they feel invested emotionally, personally and financially in the future of their student and the university.

Here are a few updates from our office from Summer 2026:
