Whether you are seeking connections to resources or feeling unsure about where to turn, make us your first call. Our inclusive philosophy embraces diverse family structures, be it families of origin, families of choice, or other supportive figures in the lives of Bobcats.

Parents and Families can sign up to receive emergency alerts. You need to opt in to alerts each year.

If you're looking for another way to be involved in your student's Bobcat experience, consider applying for the Bobcat Family Council. Spearheaded by the Office of the Dean of Students, family members join in on the fun of planning for the future!

We love when Bobcat family members come to visit. With four different weekend options, come see your student in their element, attend engaging events, and get to know campus.

Be sure to plan ahead for accommodations as lodging books up quickly.

Never miss an important date or the opportunity to nudge your student. From holiday breaks to the FAFSA deadline, the Academic Calendar has you covered.
