Know that you raised your student right and he/she will make you
proud.
Students need to learn from their mistakes. Let your student make
mistakes.
Give your student space to make their own decisions, make mistakes,
express themselves, etc.
When your student has a bad experience in a class, with a professor,
job etc., encourage your student to handle the situation . Offer
advice and support, but let them do the work. There are many campus
and community resources to assist your student i.e., Mentors,
Ombudsman, academic advisors, etc.
Guide them--don't do it for them.
Don't try to re-live your college years through your student.
Let your student create their own memories.
Keep an open mind to your student's new ideas, experiences, and
opinions.
Be positive and patient. Adjusting to college can take time, a
positive attitude can go
a long way.
Encourage your student to join student organizations, volunteer,
pursue research interests and develop relationships with professors.
