Connection. Support. Involvement.

OSU Family Engagement strives to nurture collaborative partnerships with students’ immediate, extended and chosen family members in support of student learning, development and success.

Family Weekends

Celebrate being a member of the Cowboy Family

OSU welcomes families to visit their students on campus and in the community at any time throughout the year, but each semester we host a designated Family Weekend to celebrate the Cowboy family and provide special opportunities for immediate, extended and chosen family members to spend some quality time with their students.
