We invite all MMI families to join us for Family Weekend 2025 on October 3rd and 4th! Enjoy a variety of events specifically designed for you. Come see a snapshot of your cadet’s experience on their journey to being Marion Made.
Check-in and registration will begin at 9:00 AM on both Friday, October 3rd, and Saturday, October 4th, at the QM Student Center.
The weekend’s events culminate with the Mother’s Review parade on Saturday afternoon, followed by the lowering of the colors.
After the Lowering of the Colors, cadets are welcome to leave campus for the rest of the weekend.
