Family and Guests

Members of the student’s family and support network are welcome to attend Shark Frenzy: NSU’s Grand Orientation and Student Educational Centers orientation program.  Shark Frenzy has a parent orientation program on Thursday, a program designed especially for parent and guests that will help them become more confident in their student’s ability to successfully transition to NSU and begin to adjust to seeing their family member as a college student.


Shark Frenzy is free to attend for family and guests, however, pre-registration by your student is required and there is a maximum of two attendees per student.
