From One Parent to Another: Words of Wisdom Claymont DE
While our sons and daughters learn the best lessons by doing things on their own (including making mistakes), it’s sometimes helpful to learn through the experience of others. In this section you’ll find friendly advice and anecdotes from parents, many of whom work in the education arena as admission professionals, guidance counselors, and financial aid officers.

While our sons and daughters learn the best lessons by doing things on their own (including making mistakes), it’s sometimes helpful to learn through the experience of others. In this section you’ll find friendly advice and anecdotes from parents, many of whom work in the education arena as admission professionals, guidance counselors, and financial aid officers.
We asked for candor when collecting these quotes and promised to protect the innocent by using first names only. You may be relieved to know that even the most seasoned admission professionals are plagued by the same concerns as the rest of us when it comes to their college-bound children.
