Information for New Parents

Welcome new Siena Parents!

We understand the vital role parents play in the college experience, and we want to partner with you to ensure your student's success.  Over the next few months they will continue to learn about the Siena community and prepare for their arrival through our exclusive on-line student website (http://welcome.siena.edu). We have created this site as a resource for you to share much of the same information they will experience through that site, including required forms, important deadlines and resources.   Feel free to contact me directly should you have any questions along the way.
