We believe that students have the best chance for success at university when they feel supported by both their institution and their families. Supporters can help by maintaining a balance between supporting their students and allowing them to achieve a sense of independence. The University of Windsor's role is to provide information to both supporters and their students to assist them with achieving this balance. The transition to university is almost always challenging for all involved. The dynamics of university life have changed considerably over the past decade. The supporter website will help you to make sense of how these changes may affect you and your student; especially during their first year.
