You've entrusted James Madison University with your most valued treasure: your child. It's a role we take seriously. The Office of Parent Relations is here to partner with you in preparing your student to become an educated and enlightened citizen who will lead a productive and meaningful life.
Use this site to locate resources for parents and family members of JMU students and find information on the annual Family Weekend, Parents Council, send-off picnics, and other activities.
Have a student trying to get home? We can help with that. Planning a visit to JMU? We have information on that, too.
Keep in touch with what's happening at the university through JMU news, The Breeze, Madison magazine, and more. Parents also receive the Madison Family Connection e-newsletter. Register your e-mail here.
