Family Weekend

Family Weekend is an opportunity for you and your family to return to campus and visit your student. Our office hosts a variety of events for guests to participate in, including Cardinal Nights: Casino Night, the traditional Family Tailgate, and Sunday Brunch in the dining hall with your student. PFA Cardinal Members also have the opportunity to attend the PFA Cardinal Member Reception on Friday night.
Tips For Parents

It is our goal to help you be a supportive voice for your student by providing you with resources, relationships, education, and communication. Hopefully these initiatives will provide you with the knowledge and understanding needed to help your student learn, grow, and ultimately reach their full potential at the University of Arkansas. Whether you are a first year family member or your student is a senior, we are excited to serve you and have a variety of programs that will hopefully meet your families' needs.
