Children benefit most when their parents are supportive in their daily activities. With supported parents, children can continue to grow and succeed in everything they do. People will actually become more confident if they know that their parents support their decisions.
 
When it comes to attending a college of your choice, it is important to have your parents’ support. They serve as your first support pillar when you need someone to lean on; which is typically the case with first year students. Going to a new school, being surrounded by new people, studying for long periods of time and taking one test after the other will definitely be somewhat intimidating for many youngsters.
 
According to recent studies, students with supportive parents are much more likely to succeed academically than those without them. This serves as proof that a student’s college experience largely depends on the support received from family and friends. This is why it is essential for parents to join their kids when visiting a university or college; giving them advice and tips on what to expect and how to take on this new challenge. By supporting students with their college applications, parents are in fact helping them to lay the correct foundation to prepare them for college life.
 
With students being 81% more likely to graduate from high school if their parents are supportive of their studies and career choices, students can get into prestige colleges much more easily and improve their chances of academic success. While there are many support groups and “college access” programs available for first-time students, nothing beats the solid support structure that parents can provide.
When applying for college admission in North Carolina, you might be faced with many options; and with more than 30 colleges and universities in this State alone, making the right choice might seem impossible. This is where supportive parents come in. They can shed light on your career goals, the more important things to remember, as well as the subjects and goals that you need to focus on.
 
Having supportive parents will definitely go a long way in helping a student prepare for the first year of college. With loving guidance and a solid foundation, students are very likely to succeed with their career goals and enjoy the journey along the way.
