Share the Experience at Family Weekend 2024!

Saturday, February 17 - Monday, February 19

On behalf of the Parent Network, we invite you to join us at Claremont McKenna College for Family Weekend 2024, February 17-19 (Saturday to Monday). Events will begin the morning of Saturday, February 17. You can expect a weekend packed with events to help you see CMC through the eyes of your student. Join interactive learning sessions, panel discussions, faculty lectures, get-togethers, athletic events, and student entertainment.

Siblings, grandparents, and other family members or guests are welcome at all events. Bring the whole family to explore the campus and the beautiful surrounding areas, including historic downtown Claremont lovingly known as “The Village.” Please note that programs offered during Family Weekend are not specifically designed for children under 16.

Students are encouraged to attend all portions of the weekend! Please discuss the activities with your student and confirm their availability.  (Please note that some students may be preparing for mid-terms.) The good news is that there are plenty of activities and sessions to attend with other families during your student’s busy times. While general registration for students is complimentary, registration and payment are required for the Saturday dinner at the Athenaeum, Lunch and Learn,  and the wine tasting for those over 21.

The Family Weekend schedule changes every year and there is something for everyone. Whether you’ve attended Family Weekend in the past or this is your first time on campus, we are beyond excited to welcome you to share the experience at CMC! We hope you will take advantage of this chance to enjoy our beautiful campus and connect with our entire community.
