Welcome Parents

Stay In The Know

At USF, we understand that college years offer students both the opportunity to enjoy significant independence and self-reliance while still being able to count on parental guidance and support. Parents are important members of the USF family and an integral part of the university experience for their sons and daughters.

Since students do call home for more than just money, parents need to be informed. The USF Web site can provide you with an abundance of information on a wide variety of topics related to both academics and campus life:

• campus safety and emergency preparedness
• admissions process
• financial aid
• academic programs
• career planning and job search services
• student activities
• campus housing
• dining services
• textbooks and supplies
• parking on campus
• visiting Tampa

Stay Involved

Staying informed about what’s going on and being involved will enable you to provide the support your student needs. You can do this by visiting the campus, joining the Parents Association and attending events such as Family Weekend or undergraduate or graduate orientation.

And, of course, you can always contact us directly at any time with specific issues.

Thank you for entrusting your son or daughter’s education and future to USF.
