What is the parents’ role in guiding their child through the college admissions process?

Parents need to be aware of the progress of the application, they also need to be aware of the costs they will be undertaking and they need to be very open and frank about any concerns they may have. For students applying for financial aid, parents have to fill and submit forms declaring their financial status. The parents’ support and interest can be very motivating for their children.
