Memberships

A department with the Division of Student Affairs, Texas Parents is largely a self-sustaining organization which means we get very little state-allocated funding. Consequently, we must raise the funds ourselves to maintain and support the office, host Family Weekend and Family Orientation, provide funds for student programs, events and initiatives and honor outstanding students, staff and professors. In order to raise funds, we sell memberships to the organization. A one-year membership is $50 and a four-year membership is $150.

Joining Texas Parents is the perfect way to stay informed of important dates, deadlines and events that are relevant to you and your student. We are your office on campus. A place you can call with questions and concerns. A place you can call for information and advice. A membership in Texas Parents “places you on campus,” giving you quick access to University departments and offices.

As Vicky Rollins, a UT mom and Texas Parents member recently said of us:

"Texas Parents is a resource and reminder of all the things your college student forgets to tell you. The monthly e-mails keep parents connected to what is going on at UT, from tuition deadlines to campus activities. In my case, it became so much more. With a daughter who attended an out-of-state high school, finding friends and an academic path was a challenge.

Then I was diagnosed with cancer. I called Texas Parents with my daughter's concerns and conveyed the fact that I was not able to be the supportive parent that I had always been in the past. Texas Parents' staff members became a fantastic resource as they helped us address the problems we were having. They had great ideas and contacts for our daughter and even suggested ways to address her academic needs. I can never repay their kindness and attention in our time of need. Texas Parents is a great asset to have on the UT campus and on your side as your student goes through the rigors of being a college student. I strongly encourage you to join!"

Help us keep Texas Parents thriving as we work to serve you and your students.
