To the Family of <<first>> <<last>> <<street1>> <<street2>> <<city>>, <<state>> <<zipcode>>
Dear family,
Congratulations! We are thrilled to welcome <<first>> to the incoming class at Johnson & Wales University. This is such an exciting time for your student and your family. You must be very proud.
We understand that starting college is a big transition, and families often have questions or want guidance along the way. My team and I are here to support you throughout <<first>>’s JWU journey. Families contact me when they’re not sure where to turn with a specific question, when they might have a concern about their student or sometimes when they just need someone to listen. I have over 20 years of experience working with college students and their families.
There are a few important steps <<first>> will need to complete to get ready for enrollment, and our Admissions team will guide your family through each one. Families also learn a lot during JWU’s summer Orientation program, and I hope to meet you there. Registration will be open soon. I am also excited to greet families during Wildcat Welcome Weekend and at events like JWU’s Family Weekend (Dates will be announced soon!).
Please feel free to reach out anytime, now or throughout <<first>>’s time at JWU. You can email me directly at deanofstudents.pvd@jwu.edu. We look forward to supporting your student, welcoming your family to campus and celebrating all the moments ahead.
Sincerely,
Dr. Melanie V. Tucker, NCC, LMHC Vice President of Student Affairs
