We're excited to welcome our newest Crusader families to campus for CareyWOW 2026, August 13–17! This weekend is designed to help students transition to life at William Carey University through orientation sessions, team activities, service opportunities, and fun events that help them connect before classes begin.
While CareyWOW is primarily a student-focused experience, we invite parents and families to join us for a few special opportunities on Thursday, August 13:
- Parent Hospitality Room
🕘 9:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m.
📍 Legacy Room, Wilkes Hall - Parent Q&A Session
🕜 1:30 p.m. – 2:30 p.m.
📍 Legacy Room, Wilkes Hall
After Thursday, students will continue participating in CareyWOW activities as they prepare for the first day of classes on Monday, August 17. We encourage families to ask their students about their experiences throughout the weekend and celebrate this exciting milestone together.
We look forward to welcoming your family to campus. Armor Up!
