Join the SC State Parents and Family Association
The newly established Parents and Family Association aims to build a bridge between the students’ families and the University. Engaging parents ensure student success by opening the lines of communications between the institution and homelife and involves parents in campus life. The association is the conduit through which parents support their student's educational endeavors and contribute to the building of a holistic and productive university experience.
