Parent & Family Transition

Welcome Parents, Family Members, and Supporters!

We are thrilled to have your student at AU and to have you join our community. This is an exciting time for you, and we have resources to help ease the transition. You have many opportunities to learn about the University and to participate in campus events, particularly those that showcase Augusta University's teaching and research missions.

All parents and families are encouraged to attend our Parent and Family Orientation, whether your student is a First-Year student or Transfer student. We have created this page to help all parents and guests understand what resources and information will be available throughout your students time with Augusta University. We encourage you to take some time to explore this site and learn more about the campus and Augusta community.

We hope to provide you and your student with an experience like no other as you transition into the Augusta University community.

Welcome to the Augusta University, and as always, Go Jags!

Our Mission: We foster an inclusive partnership between Augusta University and family supporters that enhances student success through meaningful engagement, educational resources, and ongoing support throughout the university journey.

Our Purpose: Parent and Family Programs empowers supporters to become active partners in their student's educational journey by fostering meaningful connections, providing essential resources, and creating an engaged network of Augusta University families committed to student success.

All submissions are handled in accordance with federal privacy regulations. For student-specific concerns, detailed information will be communicated directly with your student, while you'll receive confirmation that follow-up has been initiated.
