Alumni Weekend 2023

Planning ahead

Please bookmark this page and check it often for information and updates. As you begin to plan your visit, here are some helpful times to keep in mind: 

Friday, June 2:  
4:00 PM - Registration and Check-in 

Enjoy the opportunity to connect with classmates and friends during the Welcome Reception followed by dinner and panel discussions with faculty and alumni.

Saturday, June 3: 
8:00 AM - Registration and Check-in 

Join alumni, faculty, and friends for a day filled with festivities, faculty-led discussions, yoga and mindfulness sessions, the presentation of our alumni awards, and a luncheon. President Janet Steinmayer will welcome alumni and share more about Lesley's campus plans and new initiatives. The day will conclude with dinner and live entertainment.

Please note: 
For your comfort and safety, overnight stays on campus will not be available this year. Lesley is conducting renovations and other maintenance work on the South Campus (on Brattle St.), and Doble Campus (on Mellen and Mass Ave.) which will involve utility shutdowns, and many services in the dorms will not be reliable. Please refer to the section Where to Stay to help plan your trip!

• Registration

  Registration for Alumni Weekend will be open on March 15. Please check this page after that date to register.

• Parking and Public Transportation

  Since Lesley is located in an urban area, the best way to get to campus is via public transportation. South Campus is a five-minute walk from Harvard Square, which is served by the Red Line subway and many bus lines. The Porter Campus is steps away from Porter Square station, also on the Red Line.

  Parking is free for alumni guests. We have limited parking on South Campus, so carpooling is encouraged.
