Parent Resources

So your kids are in college, or starting to think about where to go to college, and you are busy trying to figure out where the past twenty years have gone. It seems like only yesterday you were wiping Cheetos’ dust from their faces while they systematically plotted to sabotage any and all house cleaning efforts. Well, maybe that actually was only yesterday…but you get the point.

A thousand questions dance in your mind. “Where will my child decide to go to school? Is the campus safe? What will they major in? Can they get a good job with that? How has college changed since I went to school? What can we do to prepare? Will the mullet make a comeback? And oh, yeah…how are we going to pay for all of this?”

This website has been designed to help you find answers to some of your questions. It’s a good place to start, so take a look around. For all of those questions that this website doesn’t cover, and we’re sure you have many, we want to encourage you to contact us at the Kansas Independent College Association, mark@kscolleges.org.

We believe that families play an important role in the success of students throughout the college experience and beyond. Below are links to resources from each of Kansas’ 18 private colleges. Find out how you can get involved.
