Parents & Family

As the parent or family member of an Alma College student you are a part of the Alma College family. You’re probably also filled with questions. We want you to know that we’re here to help. If you can’t find what you’re looking for here, let us know!

Welcome to the Family

We hope you will engage with your student and the college by attending events and considering other types of involvement, such volunteering for the Parent and Family Association or the Alma Ambassador Program.

Register for the Parent and Supporter Portal

Designed with you in mind, the portal provides a steady feed of the information you need to support your Scot: key events; deadlines and milestones; and tips to help your student make the most of college. You can even receive regular updates sent right to your email! Register today.

Send Something Sweet

The Alma College Alumni Office and Student Alumni Association offer you an easy way to send balloons, birthday cakes or giant cookies to your student to celebrate birthdays or other special occasions. For more details or to place an order, visit the Cakes & Goodies page.

Scots Quarterly E-Newsletter

If you are interested in receiving the Scots Quarterly e-newsletter, which has information geared toward parents and families of Alma College students, please fill out the form below and we’ll ensure you are added to our email list. You can contact us at any time (family@alma.edu) to be removed from the mailing list.

Please note: parents or guardians whose name and email appeared in an incoming student’s admissions materials automatically receive this newsletter. You don’t have to submit this form again. If you are unsure if you shared your email, your email has changed or if you are someone other than a parent/guardian of a student at Alma College, the form below is for you to keep updated on your Scot’s life at Alma!
