University Weekend FAQ
Every fall, alumni, families and friends are invited to return to Stockton to show their Osprey pride and celebrate our version of Homecoming & Family Weekend, called University Weekend. For one fun-filled week, the Stockton community has the opportunity to participate in many student and alumni events, including spirit and athletic competitions, artistic performances and demonstrations, various alumni reunions and gatherings and the university’s Parade and Street Fair.
All Stockton University alumni, students, staff, faculty, families, and friends are invited to University Weekend.
Yes! Your family and friends are invited to all University Weekend events, especially Saturday’s Parade and Street Fair and Sunday's Fred Fest!
Of course! University Weekend offers something fun for everyone. See a list of our featured events here.
Space permitting, non-registered walk-up attendees will be able to pay for individual
events at the door. However, advanced registration is strongly encouraged. Some events
have limited space, and ticketed events may sell out. In addition, registering in
advance allows your classmates to know you’re coming back, makes your own planning
easier and helps us prepare for your arrival so you can avoid lines at the entrance
of each event.Register here.
Our staff is also available to answer questions by phone ((609) 652-4469) or email
(alumni.office@stockton.edu).
Dress comfortably, especially for events that involve walking or time outdoors, such as Street Fair and various sporting events. For special awards and recognition events, dress is business attire.
With the exception of thunder and lightning, all University Weekend Events will be held rain or shine.
You’re encouraged to continue to check the weather reports and monitor alumni.stockton.edu, @Stockton_Alumni on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, and facebook.com/AlumniStockton
