My mom started giving me little pieces of advice for weeks before move-in day. Always travel with a buddy. Be nice to the shy girl down the hall. Don’t be the drunk girl at the party. Take classes that interest you. Find your passion. Call your brother. Join the newspaper. On and on. Yes Mom, I know. Yes, Mom, I will. My mom had me covered for everything except how much I would miss her nagging little pieces of advice.

From one dad..."As parents, we get very caught up in where our children “should go” and often wind up looking at the same schools as everyone else. In NYC, where I’m from there, people get too caught up in the whole college process. I wish my wife and I had thought and looked outside the box a little more. College is what you make it. What you put in is what you get out. I don’t think it really matters where you go.
They say hindsight is 20/20 so we asked fathers who’ve been through the college process to share what they learned and their advice to those just starting out. Honest, moving and chock full of wisdom you need to read these heartfelt responses as you embark on your college admissions journey.&nbs
