Parents & Families
Rebel Ready Week events are open to incoming UNLV students only. The week gives students an important opportunity to connect with their peers, become familiar with campus life, and prepare for their first semester.
To support their transition, we encourage families to say their goodbyes on Sunday so students can be fully present when programming begins on Monday. Thank you for supporting your student as they take this next step at UNLV. We appreciate your understanding and support as your student takes this important first step toward independence and success at UNLV.
