SHSU Student & Family Experience

Congratulations to this week’s winner of our Parents’ Association Weekly Summer Scholarship Giveaway!

For all of our New Student Orientation sessions, we will be doing a weekly scholarship giveaway for parents who join on a paid tier membership with the Parents’ Association. Everyone who signs up for a paid membership for that week will be entered into the giveaway with winners being announced the following Monday!

We’re delighted to celebrate this exciting moment and appreciate everyone who participated. Your engagement and enthusiasm continue to make our community truly special.
For those who haven’t signed up for a paid tier membership, be sure to do so and stay connected for future opportunities and announcements.
