Space is limited for all events. Update 6/29/22: We are overwhelmed by the positive response to these events celebrating our new Blue Hen families. We are nearing the capacity for both events in New Jersey and Metro DC and will be activating a waitlist today. When capacity is reached for a location, interested families may choose to be added to the waitlist for the city of their choice and a UD representative will contact you when space is available. We look forward to welcoming you to the Blue Hen community!
New Student Send-Off events are made possible through support from UD's Office of Parent & Family Giving, the Division of Student Life and the Parent & Family Leadership Council.
