Staying involved in campus activities is important for many parents and families. Share in our traditions and experience what it’s like to be a Redhawk by attending Family Weekend or SU Homecoming. We also have a full library of recorded webinars to assist their families and students with a variety of campus life transitions. Regardless of how you stay involved, you’ll be proud to have a Redhawk in the family!

Family Weekend and Homecoming
At Seattle University, we are guided by our Jesuit commitment to educating the whole person. Scheduled for November 5-8, 2026, Family Weekend invites parents, families, and supporters to deepen their connections to the Seattle University community through learning, reflection, and celebrations. From engaging with the arts and athletic events, to special open houses, campus tours, and educational sessions with meaningful conversations and dialogues, come discover and immerse yourself in Seattle University.
- Welcome and Check-in Day | Thursday, November 5
- Tours and Open Houses Day | Friday, November 6
- Arts and Athletics Day | Saturday, November 7
- Community & Reflection Day | Sunday, November 8
Similar to the experience of college, or attending conferences, you will have the opportunity to enjoy some special and memorable experiences, but simply not everything. No worries, this is part of the experience! As such, you are invited to create the meaningful Family Weekend experience of your own choosing. Ticket passes are available for the Full Weekend, or other options. Ticket passes include on-campus parking and hospitality. Discounted athletic ticket links will be coming soon!

We intend to make your involvement informative, dynamic, and meaningful. We’ll help you navigate volunteer opportunities and identify how to best support your student during this time of growth.
