College is a time of transition for students and their
families. UNC Chapel Hill aims to make that transition as smooth as
possible by
communicating with the parents of new Carolina students through Parents
Programs– your office on campus. We have compiled a few tips,
Web sites, and event information here, but if your question
or
concern is not answered, feel free to email parents@unc.edu
or call 919-962-8304.
