Once your student is enrolled

We understand that enrolling in a college class as a high school student is a large undertaking. As a parent we encourage you to support your student by:

• Talking to your student on a regular basis about their progress in the course.
• Encouraging your student to reach out to the professor as soon as possible if they are struggling.
• Encouraging your student to practice good study habits. College classes require independent studying, outside of class time, to be successful. For every hour of class time, students should spend two hours outside of class studying.
• Encouraging your student to self advocate--whether that be tutoring, contacting the professor, forming study groups with classmates, or talking to their high school counselor for guidance.
