The Scarlet Start: A Family Welcome Experience

Join us for a special evening celebrating the rich tradition of Rutgers–Newark legacy families! Whether you are a proud parent, relative or guardian of a current student—and a Rutgers alum yourself—this event is for you.

On Thursday, September 4, 2025, from 6:30–8:30 PM, we invite you to connect with other legacy families and new Scarlet Raiders during our Weeks of Welcome Family Reception. Enjoy hors d’oeuvres, beverages, and an inspiring panel, a chance to meet university staff, explore family involvement opportunities, and network with other families who know the pride of Rutgers.
