During their time at the University of Iowa, your student will be both celebrated and challenged as they pursue their academic and personal journey.

We encourage you to review the resource pages linked here, which highlight the offices, departments, and services available to support their success.

Each page also provides suggested conversation starters to help guide meaningful discussions with your student. These conversations can encourage reflection, reinforce sound decision-making, and demonstrate your ongoing support as they chart their path forward.
