Freshmen Parents Page

First year (freshman) students have a lot of "firsts" during the year.  And the same holds true for parents of freshmen!  We hope this page will assist you as you guide your student through several of these first events - first time away from home, first time living with a roommate, or first final examination. We will continue to update this page, according to your needs.  Email us at parents@sandiego.edu if you are looking for something you can't find!

Read a recent article from the San Diego Union Tribune, including advice from university administrators about supporting first year students.
