Parents' guide

As the parent or guardian of someone thinking of applying to university, you are in a position to offer invaluable support and advice. Choosing a university and possibly living away from home for the first time is exciting and a growing experience. Many young people benefit tremendously from the input and support of their families as they prepare to take this important step.

Most parents are proud that their child is starting university and want to help them make the right choices. We’ve prepared a few key facts to guide you through the process and answered some of the questions that parents often ask us.

All I really want is for my girls to be happy, so I want to help them ask all the right questions. Chris
