<p>Choosing a college is a big decision and also carries certain financial implications for not only the student, but the parents as well. There is certainly nothing wrong in having the parents be involved in this process. Most families do not have unlimited financial resources available for college, so everyone needs to consider that when drawing up lists of potential colleges of interest. Parents most likely would also go on visits with their h.s. student to help narrow down the list of potentials.</p>
<p>As with most opinion related topics on here, it is virtually impossible to answer this question in generalities because each family is different. At the far ends of the spectrum, you might ask were the parents not involved enough in the college making decision? Obviously, there are probably some at that end of the spectrum as well.</p>
