Fall Family Weekend: October 24–26, 2025
Fall Family Weekend is an opportunity for you to reconnect with your student and experience Duck life. Weekend highlights include Duck into a Class, Homecoming festivities, and athletic events. For our first-year families, Fall Family Weekend occurs at the end of a very crucial period in your student's time at the University of Oregon. We encourage all of our parents and families to join us for a fun-filled weekend!
Registration for family weekend will open approximately one month prior to the event weekend through the University of Oregon's Family Portal.
