Scripps 101 Virtual Series

DON’T FORGET ABOUT SCRIPPS 101: VIRTUAL PROGRAMMING FOR NEW PARENTS AND FAMILIES

It is our distinct pleasure to welcome all students and their families to Scripps College. The Office of Parent Engagement and Philanthropy has put together virtual programming throughout the Summer and into the Fall semester to provide further insights about how some of the Scripps offices work to empower our students. These sessions are designed for incoming families and are great tools if you are new to the College or just want to learn more. You can sign up for one or multiple, depending on your interest and need.

Dates are forthcoming for the following sessions:

  • Financial Aid
  • Student Accounting and Billing
  • First-Year Academic Advising
  • Prep for Move-In with the Office of Parent Engagement
  • Virtual Summer Welcome Session
