Stephens Family Events

Move-in Day

Move-in Day is a very special day at Stephens College: Our employees come ready to help you and your student move into her residence hall.

We kick off new student orientation, and hold info sessions for parents and families. Our Crossing the Bridge ceremony welcomes both students and families to our campus community.

Family Weekend

Each fall we welcome the families of current students as well as our alumnae to the Stephens campus. Back to College academic showcases help you understand what your student has been learning, and the BBQ at the President’s Home brings everyone together.

Commencement

Commencement is the culmination of your student’s hard work, of course, but also of your support and commitment. Stephens holds Commencement ceremonies in May and December. Decorating mortar boards is a long-held Stephens tradition. Everyone on campus pulls together to ensure the best send-off for our students while welcoming them into the alumnae community.

Move-in Day was absolutely amazing. Thank you to everyone at Stephens for being there. My husband and I walked away from campus that day feeling good about leaving our daughter there! We feel like we left her with family.”

We are so proud that Hannah is a Stephens Star and that she gets the chance to ‘dream up’ and mature into an inspirational Stephens woman. Her Mum and I cannot speak highly enough of this college!”
