Parent & Family Welcome

Congratulations and welcome to the CCA Community!

Attending college represents an important transition for students and their families alike. We value the essential role you played in supporting your student's decision to attend CCA, and we encourage you to stay involved in their college trajectory over the next few years.

We’re excited to welcome family and friends to campus on Monday, August 25th. As you accompany your new student to campus we’ll be offering the following activities and events to make the day festive and informative:

Residential Students' Move In Day | Monday, August 25

  • Students with last names beginning with A-L may move in from 9 am to 11 am.
  • Students with last names beginning with M-Z may move in from 11 am to 1 pm.

Arriving within your designated check-in time creates a smooth move-in process for all. Those arriving before 9 am will not be able to check in until their designated move-in time slot.

  • 1:00 pm-2:00 pm & 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm | Campus Tours: Take a student-guided tour of CCA with other new students and families.
  • 3:00 pm-4:00pm | Fond Farewells & Bright Beginnings! A Parent/Student send-off. Join us for light refreshments and an opportunity to hear from CCA’s President David Howse as well as key faculty, staff and administrators from around the college.

Chimera Welcome Week | Monday, August 25 - Friday, August 29

We encourage our families to allow our new students to begin to acclimate to the campus community by keeping 10am-5pm free for them to attend the week’s offered activities.. Our Chimera Welcome week is only for new CCA students.
