2025 Family Weekend is Sept. 12-14

Mark your calendars for September 12-14 as we invite you to return to East Lansing and explore campus with your student! Family Weekend Presented by MSUFCU is the opportunity to celebrate Spartan families — near and far. This year, thanks to the generous funding of MSU and MSU Federal Credit Union, there is no registration fee! Registration is still required, however, and will be available July 28 through Aug. 29.

There are some exciting changes to the event this year! We will be offering some events Friday, Sept. 12, including Green and White Night and a resource fair at the MSU Union. On Saturday, Sept. 13, the Spartans take on Youngstown State — a link with slightly reduced game tickest will be available later this summer. Saturday's tailgate is still offered to families at no cost and this year will feature a new set-up and additional options!

We are once again able to offer a limited number of hotel rooms and football game tickets to families this year. If you would otherwise be unable to attend either the weekend and/or the football game, please complete this survey by July 11 to be considered for this support. Families will be chosen at random for this support and not all families who make the request will receive it.
