Getting ready for college is a big deal—and joining the Pace Community makes it even more exciting. Your student isn’t just heading off to college; they’re stepping into a world of opportunity. Here are five ways to help them navigate the transition and start strong at Pace:
Your student may be excited, scared, or both—there's no wrong way to feel. Be open to their big feelings and celebrate their journey to becoming a proud Pace Setter! We also offer on-campus resources to help them when you're not able to answer the phone. Encourage your student to explore the Counseling Center and Pace's Center for Wellbeing.
At Pace, students are empowered to become leaders and self-starters. Encourage your student to manage their time, handle finances, and make decisions. Consider setting up regular check-ins to provide a balance of support and independence.
Familiarizing your student with their new environment can alleviate anxiety. Take a campus tour, explore the facilities, and participate in Orientation events. From NYC to Westchester, Pace offers unique experiences at every corner.
Highlight the academic resources available at Pace, such as tutoring centers, libraries, and faculty office hours. Pace’s commitment to academic excellence ensures your student has the support they need to thrive.
Campus life is buzzing—and students who dive in get the most out of their college experience. Encourage your student to attend events, join student clubs and orgs, read emails from the University, and follow along on social media to stay in the loop. There’s always something happening at Pace.
Your student’s future starts here. With your support and Pace’s real-life learning opportunities, they’re set to thrive. Get ready to cheer them on as they dive into this exciting new chapter.

Questions about registration, financial aid, or student accounts? The Pop-Up Student Solutions Centers are your go-to resource as we head into the Spring 2026 semester. No appointments, no stress—just the answers you need to keep moving forward.
