Product Info Reviews

Description:

A Parent's Guide to College Admissions is for parents of children nearing college age who are just beginning to figure out the process of helping children select and apply to colleges. The book answers your essential first questions and guides you through the many stages: preparing for the process of choosing a college, assessing what you see on a campus visit, selecting colleges, and financing the final decision. The book also gives advice on surviving the tests, applications, and the "early decision" decision. Marjorie Nieuwenhuis includes checklists of questions you can ask random attending students ("Is the food good?" "If you had to do it over, would you still choose this college?"), advice for the campus visit ("let your child go off on his own, if he shows the inclination"), and suggestions for parents on dealing with their own emotions about their child's acceptances and turndowns. A Parent's Guide to College Admissions provides an excellent starting place that makes the task seem achievable.
