Keep a healthy schedule

Enough sleep, proper nutrition, a balance between studying and enjoyable activities — during the stress of the academic year, these basics are often the first to be forgotten. Family members can be helpful in reminding their students to practice self-care.

Meet new people

Remind your student to go into situations with an open mind. Meeting new people can sometimes be uncomfortable, but it is part of the adjustment process. They may be surprised what they learn about themselves as they get to know people who are different from them. Ask them what they’re discovering.

Stay connected to home, but with limits

Communicating with your student via text and social media can help you stay involved and can help them stay in touch with family and friends from home. This is how many students in the iGen communicate! At the same time, balance is crucial. Don’t demand constant communication. Help them find ways to depend on others in their social circles.

Discuss important topics, including difficult issues

Read the materials sent by Colgate, as well as the Maroon-News and colgate.edu/news so that you can have conversations with your student about what is going on at the University.

Give your student space to grow and mature

You have already spent years instilling your values; allow them to be realized.

Expect challenges

The adjustment to college life can be difficult. Remember that challenges are growth opportunities. Your student will build resiliency and better prepare for life after graduation if they can approach challenges with active problem-solving. Be supportive rather than intrusive.
