What should parents say when their child gets into college?

When your child is accepted into a college, it’s important that they rejoice in a way that supports them instead of underlining pressure. Every student responds differently; some want a quiet acknowledgment, while others want a large celebration. Allow them to lead in their desired celebration at this turning point. Steer clear of concentrating on status or drawing comparisons to other students; instead, highlight their diligence, tenacity, and the fascinating road ahead. Help them with the next steps, including course choices, housing applications, and looking into financial aid packages. Urge them to check out campus resources and get in touch with possible colleagues. Their confidence and readiness for their next chapter will grow from your guidance during this change.
