Connection. Support. Involvement.

The college experience not only impacts future career success, but is instrumental to overall development. OSU Family Engagement strives to nurture collaborative partnerships with students’ immediate, extended and chosen family members in support of student learning, development and success. At OSU, we understand that earning a degree is a family endeavor.

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.
