We’re excited to have your student on campus!
Whether home is Stafford County, VA, or San Diego, CA, they are transitioning to their new routine just as you transition to yours. You may have heard from them, or maybe not, about new experiences with professors, classes, extra-curricular, the city of Fredericksburg, or even laundry in the residence halls. And this may lead you to think about their interaction in our community.
To get started as a UMW parent, here are a few things you can do:
- Join the Eagle Family Connection mailing list to keep informed about campus events, next steps, and more.
- Join the official UMW Class of 2029 Facebook group for parents.
- Consider one of our upcoming admitted student events!
Our staff is happy to take your questions, accept your comments, and address concerns to help you learn more about:
- Academic support systems (tutoring, the Writing Center, the Speaking Center, the Digital Knowledge Center, professors’ office hours)
- Meal plans and other dining options
- Student Health Center and other wellness options – confirm your student submitted their student health forms or bring them on Family Weekend!
- Accommodations available for your student through the Office of Disability Resources
- Resources available for Off-Campus Students
You are their comfort and sounding board amidst significant change. We want to help you help them!
