Parents
You have high hopes for your child's education and we do too. We keep safety, education and real life preparation as top priorities.
From the moment your child arrives Hanover’s campus, faculty and staff look forward to developing a strong relationship with members of our parent community. This relationship exists through Commencement and beyond.
Each year, signature on-and off-campus events are hosted that we hope you will enjoy as parents. Homecoming, Legacy Day, Family Day, Parents Connect Tailgate and Parents Connect Dinners are always highlights of the academic year.
When you are not on campus, the school maintains virtual ways of staying connected. Take a moment to find the newly migrated
Hanover College Parents Group on Facebook.com here. Through this site, you will receive regular news about the exciting things happening at the school.

Legacy Award
Legacy family connections have long been a part of the success of Hanover College and its students. Hanover honors accepted legacies with a Legacy Award, given to immediate relatives of Hanover College alumni and current students to remind us that the most important part of the College is not its building, but its people. The Legacy Award is in the amount of $2,000 per year.
Visit www.hanover.edu/alumni/volunteer/prospect to refer your potential legacy or legacies, so they can learn about the benefits of becoming part of the Hanover College family. For more details about the Legacy Award: www.hanover.edu/legacy.
Most students experience some period of adjustment when entering the college environment and facing final exams.
