For Parents

You're One of the Family!

Welcome to Northwood University! Transitioning to university life is an exciting experience - for both the student and the parent. Please utilize this information as a quick reference to all vital Northwood resources.

Be assured that Northwood University's faculty and staff are here for your son or daughter. We've got them covered from academics to financial aid to buying books to keeping them healthy. Their mental and physical well-being is an important aspect of their academic success. We encourage you to stay involved, learn about Northwood, and continue talking with your child about their Northwood Experience. Have a question? Please don't hesitate to contact us.

The moderated chat will allow you to submit questions and receive answers from individuals who work in that particular area on a daily basis. The discussion will be available to all parents joining us in the "chat room." If you have a very personal question, please contact us privately as the "chat room" is a public forum. We will not be engaging in video or audio chats at this time, only typed questions and answers will be used.

Logging in is easy. Follow the simple instructions below to join the discussion on the session dates:
