Information for Parents and Families
This page is dedicated to providing helpful information to parents and families.
At PLU, we realize most students don’t attend college alone. They are supported by their parents, relatives, friends and supporters. PLU faculty and staff encourage students to find their passion in life, and they help students put that passion to good use – for themselves, their communities, and the world.

Submit a Care Form
If at any time you have something you want to share with PLU about your student, know that they need support, or have a question, you are able to submit a Care Form. Care Forms are reviewed by a team in Wellbeing Services and Resources and the appropriate resource will reach out directly to your student.
In case of an emergency, call PLU Campus Safety at 253-535-7911.
