Understanding that many parent-student relationships throughout the college search process tend to be quite fragile, it’s important that parents approach this period of their child’s life with an unwavering patience. Navigating the admissions process with grace can mean doing something as simple as participating in the research on college options with your child. Knowing how many options are available, this can overwhelm a high school student first learning about the potential next step in their educational aspirations.

While some children may benefit from something as simple as aiding in research, other children may require more or less care. Identifying the way you can help your aspiring college student is important. Learn more about how you can effectively do so through the infographic accompanying this post.
