Campus Resources: Your Cheat Sheet
What are all those buildings on campus, anyway? Where can your student find support and community, and who do YOU call when you have questions? Bursar/Student Accounts Pay tuition, room and board, and other fees here (parents access the account with student authorization). An outstanding balance may put a hold on course registration, so be sure to stay on top of things; payment plans may be available.
Registrar This office deals with student email and password set‑up, maintaining student contact information, course registration (including add, drop and withdrawal), grades, and transcript requests. Residence Life
Campus Safety/Emergency Management Responsible for patrolling, investigating complaints, safe ride services, registering bikes and electronics, helping students who get locked out of dorms, emergency drills and alerts, and more. Career Services It all happens here: job fairs, internship listings, mock interviews, interest assessments, resume and cover letter help. Career counselors can help undecided students choose a major and explore the connection between academics and potential careers. Disability Support/Accessibility Students who need accommodations for physical or mental health reasons, or because of a learning difference, work with this office.

Don’t hesitate to call with questions, or if your family’s financial circumstances have changed. Parent & Family Program This office is for YOU. They organize Family Weekend and other events on and off campus, put out newsletters and social media blasts to keep you informed, and more. If you don’t know who to call, start here and the P&F staff will direct you to the right place!
