Starting college is a big step—not just for students, but for parents and guardians too. Once your child turns 18, they’re legally responsible for themselves, but in reality, they’ll still turn to you when challenges arise. Unlike school, there’s no principal or teacher to step in, and many parents feel unsure about where to turn to get help. My research shows parents don’t fully understand how student support services work. This can make it harder to give the right advice when it’s needed. That’s where Pathways come in. Pathways helps both parents and students navigate this transition with clear, practical guidance on college life and the supports available.
