Membership to NY Maritime Parents Association

The Association provides members with an organized framework for networking opportunities and meetings with the leaders of the faculty, administration and regiment. We are also a primary financial sponsor of student activities at the school. In the past we have worked to resolve issues concerning academics, residential life, regimental, and health issues. Most recently, F.E.R.P.A. (Family Educational Right Privacy Act), prohibits the school from communicating with you regarding your child's grades, progress, successes, or failures. As the Parents Association we can not access individual records. We can however, with the help from other parents, and the administration, learn what problems students are facing, and what solutions/remediation may be available.

For your $200 donation you will receive a special Maritime mug, a calendar of school and association activities. All revenues go directly to the student body. We support numerous activities, including campus clubs, sports, student events, as well summer sea term needs.

The Association is proud of its efforts to support our sons/daughters. Your student is pursuing an extremely valuable degree. It does however "take a village" to earn it. This requires using the collective resources of the faculty, administration, Parents Association, and fellow students. Please join the NY Maritime Parents Association, and make a difference in your child's NY Maritime success.
