Main content start

Weekly Student Newsletters

The Approaching Stanford Newsletter is sent to all incoming undergraduate transfer students every week beginning in June. The newsletter, delivered only to your Stanford email account, provides campus information, critical updates, and necessary action items leading up to New Student Orientation. All newsletters, after the welcome email, are sent to both first-years and transfer students, unless otherwise noted. To ensure you don't miss a newsletter, use your SUNet ID to log into your Stanford email account at webmail.stanford.edu.

The 2024 Newsletters will begin in June and once sent, will be archived on this page.


Summer Newsletters for Families

Throughout the summer, the Approaching Stanford team will send the Approaching Stanford Newsletter for Families to those listed in your Approaching Stanford Forms. To add your family member to the mailing list after the Approaching Stanford Forms deadline (June 30), please send an email request with your family member's name and contact information to approaching@stanford.edu. Note that this request must come from you, the student, not your family member.

Once the  academic year begins, these family members will begin receiving the quarterly Stanford Parent and Guardian Newsletter. To add your family member to the mailing list after the academic year begins, please send an email request with your family member's name and contact information to mykidis@stanford.edu. Again, this request must come from you, the student, not your family member.
