Parents and guardians are inherently connected to the university throughout a student’s education and beyond. CNS and UMass Amherst offer a large number of services and information for students, and parents and guardians are invited to become familiar with these resources while also striking a balance between supporting their student and hand-holding. Parents, guardians, and families are encouraged to participate in public campus events and enjoy the rich offerings of the UMass Amherst community.
Coronavirus Update: A stay-at-home advisory is currently in effect in Massachusetts. Residence halls remain closed to all but a small group of students. Designated on-site employees are maintaining limited operations on campus. For more information about UMass Amherst’s response to the coronavirus pandemic, go to umass.edu/coronavirus.
