Welcome to Penn State Altoona for the 2008-09 academic year!

Our "Parents Page" is a new addition to our web line-up and it is our hope that you will find it to be informative and helpful as the parent of a Penn State Altoona student.

These are exciting (and perhaps a bit nerve-wracking) times as you adjust to the transition of your student into young adulthood. We recognize that parents and family members continue to play an important role in their student's lives through college. It is our hope that you will join in partnership with us to help provide the necessary support for their academic and personal growth and success.

The site as currently configured provides a wide array of information regarding campus and community resources. Please use the site to link to available resources throughout the University community. If there is additional information you may need, or an area not covered that we can provide information on, please do not hesitate to contact us.

On behalf of the Office of Student Affairs, we look forward to working with you over the coming academic year.

Sincerely,
Sean Kelly
Director, Division of Student Affairs
