Resources for parents, families + friends of current and future Hornets
At Emporia State, our mission is preparing students for lifelong learning, rewarding careers and adaptive leadership. We understand we can’t do that alone. Whether you’re a parent, aunt, brother, friend — you are an important part of your student’s journey! To help you help them, we’ve assembled resources to guide your student toward success.
Why ESU
- ESU has a consistently high career outcomes rate of 98% over 4 years. That means students are getting jobs in their field or going on to further study within six months of graduation.
- Students leave ESU with lower student debt than state and national averages.
- ESU has been recognized as a College of Distinction eight years in a row for our high-quality academic programs.
- Our smaller average class sizes mean students don’t get lost in the crowd and have more opportunities to connect with their classmates and instructors.
