¿ìè¶ÌÊÓƵ is stronger when families are engaged in the life of the college. We invite you to be part of our community while your student attends Hope. 

The Office of Family Engagement exists to make your student’s time here a positive experience for the entire family. We are grateful that you are a part of our community while your student attends Hope, and we know that sending your child away from home comes with some anxiety and stress. Thank you for trusting Hope to take the best care of them.

We know topics like choosing a major, career discernment, mental health, making friends and social pressures are all part of your student’s reality. This website provides links and information to campus resources to help you support them with their needs as they arise and change.

Whether you live nearby or thousands of miles away, there are many ways to be involved in the life of the college.

¿ìè¶ÌÊÓƵ is stronger when families are engaged in the life of the college. Our goal is to make life easier for you as you walk this journey with your children as they conquer four of the most impactful years of their lives. Cheers to you for your support and the work you put in to get them to this part of their life.
