Homecoming 2026
Join us on Friday, October 2 – Saturday, October 3, 2026
We’re excited to welcome alumni, families, and friends to campus for one of the most spirited days of the year. From cheering on our Yellow Jackets to reconnecting with classmates and enjoying family-friendly activities, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
