Whether you have a question, a concern, or a story to share, Family Connections is here to listen and to help provide support to you and your student. We are happy to serve as your connection to university resources. Never hesitate to call, 719-255-7551, or send an email, family@uccs.edu

A COMMUNITY BUILDER...

You are more than welcome to attend most UCCS events with your student, but we highlight several events each semester that we feel may be of particular interest to families, including Family Weekend. To keep up with events and activities going on at UCCS, visit events.uccs.edu.

A COMMUNICATION HUB...

Our goal is to help communicate events, updates, and happenings at UCCS with you. Additionally, we will work to inform you of many of the common transitional issues your student may experience as a college student. To keep up with what's going on at UCCS, "like" us (UCCS Family Connections) on Facebook.

Family Weekend 2022 | October 14-16, 2022

Nestled between the time students are dropped off at the beginning of the semester and when they come home for the holidays, Family Weekend 2022 is the perfect reason to come back and visit UCCS to spend time with your student. From soccer games to magic shows, this weekend has a little something for everyone. Registration is required for Family Weekend 2022 and will include the opportunity for each family to customize their own experience.

*Sometimes unforeseen circumstances happen and events can be canceled or changed. In these circumstances, UCCS is not responsible for refunding airfare, lodging, or other related expenses.
