Welcome to the Warrior Family!
Stanislaus State welcomes family members and supporters to attend Parent and Family Orientation to learn more about student life and how you play a critical supportive role to help your student succeed. NSO is important in fostering your student's smooth transition to life at Stanislaus State and we invite you to be a part of this meaningful experience.
During NSO, you will be provided resources and services, attend events, learn about helpful programs, meet people who will help shape your student's future and help you feel more connected to campus. You will also learn how to stay informed about the university and how to help your student thrive at Stanislaus State.
We look forward to building a strong partnership!
