Congrats to you, too, on your child's journey in choosing a university! We're thrilled they're considering a major within the College of LAS and would be honored for them to join us.

We know that even though this is an exciting time for your family, it can also be an intimidating one. As such, we've compiled some resources to help you every step of the way.

In the College of LAS, your child will be well-supported. Student needs are prioritized by the LAS Student Academic Affairs Office. All LAS undergrads receive academic support, career services, holistic well-being, and social connection to facilitate steady progress toward successful college and life outcomes. 

An LAS degree provides a foundation for a successful life. A major in the College of LAS opens doors with graduate schools and employers. Last year, 94% of recent LAS grads obtained a first destination within 6 months of graduation. This means they got a job or continued their education right out of college.
