Family Focus Events
Every spring we are excited to offer a series of events dedicated to families. We offer this programming for families to enjoy and learn more about their student’s upcoming experiences in a virtual format.
The programming will be recorded (when we can) and posted here to watch at your convenience, but we encourage you to attend what you can LIVE, so we can answer your questions directly. There are individual registration pages for each event, so make sure to register for each event separately to receive the corresponding Zoom information.

Study Abroad Informational Session
Join Assistant Dean of Study Abroad, Sarah Repetto, for an overview event that highlights program options, how to prepare, and what decisions go into whether your student should study abroad during their time at HMC.
Studying abroad allows our students to continue their education while absorbing the rich culture of another country. While attending a semester-long program, students have the opportunity to explore cultural, social and financial differences in ways a classroom experience would rarely touch.
These international experiences will enrich our students’ lives in ways that add value, direction and purpose. Harvey Mudd students are encouraged to see the world as their campus and gain a borderless education. Studying abroad makes this possible!
Check out all the helpful resources on the Study Abroad website. This event is a Zoom webinar.

Led by Dean of Students Cynthia Martinez, this session will help you prepare as your student heads into graduation. In this session, we’ll review the schedule of the May 2026 Commencement ceremony and weekend festivities and give details about final tasks that need to be arranged. We will discuss safety precautions and answer your questions. You can view a preliminary Commencement schedule and get information on travel and lodging at the Commencement website. This event is a Zoom webinar.
