New Student Send-Off Parties
Sponsored by the Parent and Family Program and Alumni Affairs Office of Engagement
Throughout the summer, in hometowns across the nation, we welcomed our newest Waves at special New Student, Parent, and Family Send-off Parties and Alumni Gatherings!
What is a Send-Off Party and Alumni Gathering?
These events are designed to welcome new students, parents, and family members of newly admitted Seaver College students and visit with local Pepperdine alumni and friends. Send-offs and alumni gatherings are held in cities spanning the United States and occur during the summer months, beginning in late May and concluding in early August.
The parties provide an opportunity for:
- New students, parents, and families can mingle with Pepperdine leadership, meet one another, be inspired by alumni, and ask all their questions before arriving on campus this August.
- Alumni can network with one another, meet Pepperdine leadership, discuss the new vision, and encourage the next generation of Pepperdine Waves as they begin their college journey.
Coming Soon: 2025 Summer Parties and Alumni Gatherings!
