Resources
Badger Family Hub
The Badger Family Hub is an online platform designed for parents and family members to stay connected to campus and their student’s journey at UW–Madison. In the portal, you’ll receive newsletters, join communities based on your interests, and register for Parent and Family Program events, such as Family Weekend.
The Badger Family Hub is the best way to stay informed, involved, and engaged with all things UW–Madison.
Parent and Family Program Calendar
Each year, we produce a calendar featuring key dates, information, and images that highlight iconic views of UW–Madison. 2026-2027 calendars will mailed in batches starting later this summer. All domestic families can request a copy to be mailed to them at no cost*.
You must create an account in the Badger Family Hub prior to accessing the calendar request form.
Request your 2026-2027 calendar here.
