Where do student parents go to college? 👀🎓

Student parents are enrolled across every part of higher education, but not always in the same places as non parenting students.

The data shows meaningful differences in enrollment across community and technical colleges, public universities, private nonprofit institutions, and for-profit colleges.

Understanding where student parents enroll gives us another piece of the bigger picture: the educational systems, resources, and degree pathways they are navigating.

Parenting can take many forms. 💙

For student parents, the journey through higher education can look different from one person to the next. That’s why how we define “parenting student” matters.

The Urban Institute recommends an inclusive definition that recognizes that parenting can include biological parents, stepparents, coparents, adoptive and foster parents, guardians, grandparents, extended family members, and sibling caregivers — and that children can be any age.

At Visitation Ministries, we want to make sure student parents know that their experience counts.

🎃 Looking for something fun to do with the kids this October? 🍂

As a ministry serving pregnant and parenting students in Bexar County, we know that finding affordable, family-friendly activities can be difficult when you’re balancing school, work, and family life.

So we put together a calendar of free fall & Halloween events happening around San Antonio throughout the month: from pumpkin patches and library events to festivals, arts & crafts, markets, and more!

📌 Save this post for later or share it with someone who might find it helpful.

Event details can change, and some activities require registration, so be sure to check before heading out!

Know of another free or low-cost family-friendly event happening in October? Drop it in the comments! 👇🎃 We’d love to keep building this resource for student parents and families in our community.

Happy October! 🍁👻

Student parents don’t always move through higher education on a straight line — and data helps show why. 🎓✨

Compared with non parenting students, student parents are more likely to begin college later, enroll part time, and return to school after already earning a degree or certificate.

These differences matter because they can shape how long the journey takes, how students move through college, and what support may be helpful along the way.

Swipe for a closer look at the numbers!

Pregnant and parenting students in Texas public colleges have protections at both the federal and state level. 🎓💙

Title IX provides a national baseline of protections for pregnant students, while Texas law includes additional state-specific protections for pregnant and parenting students.

Knowing what protections and supports are available can make higher education a little easier to navigate.
