When Home Is Far Away, Support Is Close By.
College is an exciting time filled with growth, independence, and new experiences. But even the most capable students occasionally face unexpected challenges.
When families live hours — or even thousands of miles away — it can be difficult to know who to call.
College Circle bridges the gap between home and campus by providing compassionate, relationship-based local support whenever it's needed.

Meet Amy Helling
As a parent myself, I understand the anxiety of having a child far from home. We founded College Circle to be the trusted local support system we wished we had.
We're not here to replace parents — we're here to extend your family's circle of support when you can't be there.
