Frequently Asked Questions
I really want to go to Reunion, but it's not my "Reunion year." Can I still go?
If I choose to stay off campus, where can I stay?
The Office of Alumni Relations has arranged discounted rates for alumni attending reunion at hotels in the area beginning Thursday, June 5 through Sunday, June 8, 2025. Rooms in the hotel blocks are available on a first come, first served basis while availability lasts. Demand for hotel rooms in the area is expected to be high and rooms are likely to sell out. In many cases, the college has negotiated flexible cancellation policies, so please consider booking early. Sarah Lawrence is not responsible for non-refundable room cancellations. Please be sure to understand the hotel’s cancellation policy before confirming your room.

If I choose to stay on campus, where will I be? What can I expect in my room?
In past years, alumni housing has been available in Rothschild, Andrews Court, and Slonim Woods. Campus housing at Sarah Lawrence means returning to dormitory living. Please keep in mind that the rooms are basic, with little furniture or creature comforts. There are no private bathrooms. Rooms are singles and beds are twin–sized. Basic sheets, a light blanket, a pillow, and a towel are provided, but we recommend that you bring an extra blanket, pillow, towel, toiletries (soap), etc. You may also want to bring hangers, an alarm clock, a hair dryer, a mirror, an iron, and/or other amenities. There are no phones, desk lamps, air conditioners, or fans.
What's the best way to get to campus from the airport, train station, bus station, etc.?
We will have shuttle buses running from the Bronxville Metro North Station to campus throughout Reunion weekend. For suggested methods of getting to campus from airports, Amtrak stations, etc., please refer to our Visiting Campus page.
If I'm driving, where can I park on campus?

I would love to see certain faculty members while I'm there, how can I arrange that?
I'd like to bring my kids to Reunion, is that OK? What about other guests (spouses, friends, family)?
Of course! Feel free to bring any guests of any ages. Please note that the College does not provide childcare during Reunion.
I lost my Sarah Lawrence sweater, will I be able to get a new one?
I love the library and can't wait to see it, will it be open?
It wouldn't be a real trip down memory lane without a visit to the library. And this time, you won't have the stress of conference work! The library will be open throughout the weekend. You'll also be able to use computers and printers.
I work out a lot, what are my options?
I want to make sure there are a lot of people from my class. How do I do that?
We want that too! One great way to help is by becoming a Reunion Volunteer. Each class has a group of volunteers that help encourage attendance for Reunion. They send e-mails, make calls, and reach out to friends via social media to help guarantee a good class turn out. If you're not sure you want to be a volunteer, you can still encourage friends by reaching out to your personal networks and sharing your Reunion enthusiasm on Facebook. The most important part of encouraging attendance is leading by example. If you register for Reunion, your friends are more likely to register for Reunion!
I love Sadie Lou and want to do something special for the College. Any ideas?
We love you, too! Reunion Volunteers also work on fundraising for a class gift to the College. To make a gift towards your class gift, please click here. To become a Reunion Volunteer and assist with fundraising, please contact Cheryl Cipro at ccipro@sarahlawrence.edu.
Some of my classmates didn't even know about Reunion, what's up with that?
It's probably because we don't have the most current contact information for your friends. Please encourage them to contact our office at alum@sarahlawrence.edu
with their most up to date home address and e-mail so we can make sure they receive Reunion materials.
