Brandeis Alumni, Family and Friends

Welcome, Class of 2029 Families!

Start your Brandeis journey by joining us for a Class of 2029 Welcome Reception near you.

These casual gatherings are your first chance to connect with other Brandeis families, meet university staff, and start building your place in the Brandeis community before move-in day even begins.
