We are so excited you and your student have decided to make Texas State and Bobcat Country your new home!

We know that parents and families are invested in their student's education and success in more ways than tuition payments and home-cooked meals during breaks. Parents and families provide support for their students to flourish academically, socially, emotionally, and mentally. Texas State offers a variety of programs, activities, and resources for your students to be successful and also for YOU, the parents and families!
