Do parents spend the night in the Residence Hall for first time in college orientation?
No. The Parent & Family orientation is only held on the first day of first time in college student orientation. Overnight accommodations are not provided. We do recommend you stay at the St. Petersburg Hilton, which is walking distance from campus and is providing discounted rates for orientation evenings. Please make your reservation online here or by calling 727-894-5000 and indicating you are a guest of the University of South Florida St. Petersburg.
