Serendipity Sendoff
At the University of Missouri-St. Louis, we believe that parents and families play an essential role in the overall success of students. We strive to ensure that the college experience is rewarding, both academically and socially for your student. By providing important resources, communication, education and relationships to our parents, we can help our students by giving them the necessary support that will enable them to accomplish their goals.
Parent and Family Orientation
Our Parent and Family Orientation is designed to help families assist their student in developing expectations, academic pathways, and easing the transition to the university. The Orientation provides parents and guests with information and resources designed specifically for them. The parent and guest sessions include financial aid, housing, coping with the college transition, campus safety, and much more. There is even an optional campus tour so parents and guests can see what being a student at UMSL is all about.
Student Care Packages
Send your Triton a care package during finals, birthdays or just because.
Parent and Family Newsletter
Staying informed is an essential way to be an involved and supportive parent. Through e-mails, newsletters, social media and a month to month student transitions calendar, we hope you will be able to stay connected and aid your student in any issues they face. We encourage you to keep a close check on our website and take advantage of our communication efforts and publications. After all, we are here for you!
The UMSL Family Connections E-Newsletter is the best way to stay up-to-date on all things going on at UMSL. Find out more information about our Inclement Weather Policy, how to help your student decide on a major, what events are coming up on campus, housing information and more! Our Family Connections E-Newsletter is distributed monthly via our family listserv.
