Parents

The annual gathering for Elon alumni, parents and friends drew a record crowd to a gala setting aboard the WWII-era aircraft carrier Intrepid.

Elon is the #1 master’s university in the South and the national leader in academic programs that lead to student success.​

Elon is the nation’s only university recognized for excellence in eight academic programs that promote student success.

With their generous gift, Elon parents Howard and Cynthia Steinberg P’17, of Atlanta, are helping to advance a top university priority.

More than 1,600 new Elon students were surrounded by friends and family Under the Oaks as faculty, staff and students celebrated the formal start of the academic year. 

The Elon community turned out Friday morning to help more than 1,600 new and transfer students move to campus as the 2017-18 academic year prepares to begin. 

Please note: A section of East Haggard Avenue that runs through campus will be closed from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 25.  Read this note for a link to the move-in day map
