Studies show that students with a great support system perform better in college and are more likely to earn a degree.  At SJSU, "family" can be defined as individuals and group members who support their student's success. Family members include parents, siblings, grandparents, cousins, extended relations, and close friends. We want you to be the best support for your student and are building a program to provide information, resources, and ways for you to connect with SJSU.
