Send-Offs: McGill Send-Offs: New Students & Parents in D.C., Maryland and Northern Virginia
Starting university is a big moment - and it's even better when shared.
To ensure everyone has the opportunity to participate, we kindly ask that each family registers for a maximum of two tickets (one student and one parent/guardian). Early registration is encouraged to avoid missing out!
Hosted by McGill parents Adam Sharon, BA'00 and Abigail Tannebaum Sharon, BA'00, this local McGill Send-Off invites incoming students and families to connect in a relaxed, welcoming setting, in partnership with the McGill Alumni Association. This event is intended for incoming first-year undergraduate students and one parent or guardian.
Join fellow families from your region preparing for the same transition, hear practical insights about studying and living in Montréal, and gain reassurance from those who have already taken this exciting step.
Whether you're feeling excited, nervous, or a bit of both, you'll be among people who understand exactly where you're coming from. Many families tell us these early conversations make all the difference - and often mark the beginning of lasting McGill connections.
We'd love to have you join us.
