Congratulations, your student has just made one of the biggest decisions that will now affect the rest of his or her life: choosing to attend South Plains College. This is a decision that not all students make alone. For some students, it’s a decision that was made long before they entered high school, and for some, the decision was something that incorporated input from multiple people. Along with these students is a completely different group, the non-traditional group. This group of students decided on a different route after high school and are now making the decision to obtain a degree.

No matter what group your student falls into, transitioning into college is a life-changing and sometimes overwhelming experience. The transitions and changes that will occur cannot be overlooked and, as a loved one, your support and understanding will play a huge role in your student’s future successes.
