Are YOU a parent or family member of a current ²ÝÁñÉçÇø Miss student?
We want to engage and support you through a variety of parent and family programming! Our Parent and Family Coordinator, Daniel%20Rigel, would love to hear from you if you have any questions.
The Golden Eagle Family Hub is the one-stop shop for parents and families to get important ²ÝÁñÉçÇø Miss information!
²ÝÁñÉçÇø Miss understands and appreciates the critical role parents and family play
in the lives of their students. Parents offer not only emotional but financial support
to students throughout their college enrollment and obviously have a vested interest
in their students’ success. However, it is very important that parents understand
that all information related to the enrollment of students 18 years of age and older
is protected by the Family Educational and Privacy Act as amended in 1974 (more commonly
known as FERPA).
Students can grant access to parents or any other authorized person to view their
student information inside our online student record system, SOAR. This parent portal
is view-only access and does not allow parents to perform any activity for their students
except to make payments. However, important information such as grades, financial
aid and class schedules can be accessed.
- Log on to SOAR and within SOAR, click the "Manage Guests" menu option.
- Click the "Add Guest User" option at the top-right of the page.
- Complete the Terms & Conditions section.
- Complete the "Add Guest User" section as prompted.
- Note that permissions can be edited and the ellipses will generate a new password for the guardian.
- Once activated, parents can log into SOAR using their newly created login and password to view their student’s information.
- For further assistance related to SOAR parent portal access, contact the Office of the Registrar, located on the first floor of Kennard-Washington Hall, at registrarFREEMississippi or 601.266.5006.
