FAQs

The total cost depends on your housing choice and how many meals you plan to attend. Everyone, including guests, will be charged an Event Fee, which is a comprehensive fee that covers all aspects of Reunion, including tent, table, linen, and chair rentals, safety personnel, registration materials, signage, parking staff, on-campus transportation, and other services that benefit all attendees. That fee ranges from $75 to $100, depending on your class year and whether you are an alum or a guest. The child event fee is $15, with additional costs for children’s camp enrollment.

Meal Fees: Depending on the meal, costs range from ~$20 - $110. The Saturday night dinner menu was chosen by your class Reunion organizers.

On-Campus Housing Fees: The fee for two nights (Friday and Saturday) is $140 per bed. We are not able to prorate the housing fee for only one night.

Beverage Fees: This required fee covers the cost of all beverages including soft drinks, supplies, and bartending services for the weekend. The beverage fee tier was chosen by your class Reunion committee.

The Alumnae Association has created a dedicated Access Fund to assist alums with the cost of attending events. If you would like to request financial assistance, please email alumnae@wellesley.edu or call 781-283-2331. All requests will be kept confidential; classes will not be informed of who has received aid. Financial aid requests should be made before registering for Reunion.

Registration closes on Monday, April 25. Late and walk-in registration will not be available, so please plan accordingly.

We no longer offer walk-in registration. To ensure that there is space available for everyone, and to avoid disappointment, we ask that all attendees register by the deadline of April 25.

The WCAA does our best to accommodate as many dietary restrictions as possible. Please bear in mind that meals are provided by outside caterers, and while we do our best to communicate with caterers to ensure the safety of our alums and guests, we cannot guarantee that all meals will be 100% allergen free. We are able to accommodate the following allergies and diets:

• Gluten free
• Dairy free
• Kosher
• Halal
• Peanut free
• Tree nut free
• Vegan
• Vegetarian

When registering, please indicate any food allergies or dietary restrictions you may have. Your preferences will be applied to all meals.

As part of the online registration, there is a designated place to provide information about any accessibility needs. Please include your information there, and we will follow up if additional details are needed. DEADLINE: All requests must be submitted by April 25. 

If you will require assistance in the residence halls or on campus, we strongly suggest registering a companion to support you during the weekend, as WCAA staff and student workers are not trained or permitted to provide nursing support or personal care.

Please send your inquiries to reunionquestions@wellesley.edu or contact us at 781-283-2331, Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. ET.

The bookstore will be open Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and on Sunday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Alums will be eligible for a 10% discount on one full-priced item.

With the jam-packed program of Reunion, finding a time and place to offer an alum-made Reunion store is challenging. At this time, we do not plan to offer this type of event. If you have a Wellesley product that you are interested in selling, we recommend that you share in online communities such as the Wellesley Made website or the following Facebook groups:

"Community - for Wellesley Alums"
"Wellesley Wears It"
"Wellesley Gets Creative"
"Made By Wellesley"
"For Sale"
"Wellesley For Sale - For Alums in Need of Wellesley Swag"

*Please note that the WCAA does not moderate or sponsor these groups or sites.

Casual attire is acceptable throughout the weekend, unless your class has notified you otherwise. The WCAA offers a campus shuttle, but we always recommend bringing comfortable shoes for walking around our beautiful campus. And of course, bring your favorite white outfit for the memorable Alumnae Parade on Sunday! Make sure to check the weather forecast and pack accordingly for our mercurial New England weather.

The dorms can be very hot or quite cold at night depending on the weather, so we recommend bringing layers. Please pack any toiletries or items necessary for your comfort. Remember to bring your proof of vaccination (a photo on your phone is a good way to always have it with you), masks (KN95, KF94, or well-fitting surgical masks are advised), and rapid COVID-19 tests for you and any guests you are bringing. 

Check-in opens at 1 p.m. on Friday. Reunion will conclude by 2 p.m. on Sunday when the residence halls will be closed.

Please go directly to your class check-in location. Have your proof of vaccination ready to show in order to receive your Reunion name badge and key card. You will need these items with you at all times for access to buildings and events.
