Siblings Weekend
Niagara University students are invited to host their sibling(s) or any relative of their family to campus to experience life on Monteagle Ridge! Fun activities and events for all will be held on campus so students can give their siblings a small taste of what life at Niagara is all about!
The cost of Siblings weekend will vary depending on what events and meals you choose to participate in. Choose your own Siblings Weekend adventure!
Siblings Weekend is sponsored by the Niagara University Traditions Committee comprised of members of the Campus Programming Board and Niagara University Student Government Association.
