For Parents & Families
Sending a child off to college. It's one of the most exciting, yet worrying, experiences in a parent's life. You want to know that your child is challenged academically, but you're also thinking about the university's food, housing, health care, campus safety, career services, and how much all of this is going to cost.

This page is a resource for parents and families of our students, a place where you can gather information about how things work at Southern and who to contact if you need to learn more.
We're glad your child has chosen Southern and will help make his or her transition to college life as smooth as possible.
Welcome to the Southern family!
