As a new Gaucho Parent, there are many resources available to assist you as your student enters UCSB. First and foremost, the staff members at UCSB are very knowledgeable about services available to your student and they are available to assist you. Specifically, Whitney White in Orientation Programs and Parent Services (805-893-3643) and Candace Stevenson, Student/Parent Liaison in the Office of Student Life (805-893-4521) are available to speak with you by email or phone if you have a question or concern or need a referral to another UCSB department or service.
Additionally, both the student and parent handbooks provide a wealth of information about what parents and students can expect during the next four years. Both of these resources are available online.
