Make the Most of Your Aggie Family
The USU Parent & Family Programs Mission is to serve families through programming designed to equip parents with resources they need to help their student succeed at Utah State University. We do this by providing Parent Orientation, Parent Publications & Podcasts, and Deferment & Notification of Leave Outreach. We provide parents and families with these resources to promote student success and independence at any stage in their student’s academic career at Utah State University.

Orientación Para Padres en Español
Ahora que su estudiante ya ha completado la Orientación Aggie (el Módulo III) este verano, por favor acompáñenos en nuestra Orientación en Español para Padres en donde escuchará directamente a los administradores de la universidad y aprenderá cómo puede ayudar mejor a su estudiante este semestre de otoño 2022. El objetivo de la orientación en español es ofrecer una sesión informativa en la cual los padres y estudiantes de primer año puedan hacer preguntas en su primer idioma. Este año nuestra orientación se llevará a cabo el 20 de Agosto de 2022 de las 12:00 pm hasta las 3:30pm en Centro de Conferencias Eccles de USU. El evento consiste en una comida, algunas presentaciones, y una feria de información, donde los padres y estudiantes pueden hacer preguntas y obtener información.
