We’ve been to JMU and RITso far and will do Syracuse on Monday. So far, parents have definitely been included (in fact, I often see both parents). These schools are 5-6 hrs away and I get to do some of the driving. My daughter and I usually split up for some of the tours/seminars and then meet up later. There have been individual financial aid meetings with the fa counselor at each school and I’m sure they expect the parent to attend this. My 16 year old son attended the JMU session with us and he immediately went off on his own, to check out certain depts that we wouldn’t be visiting. We met up for lunch. He and his sister went off for some of the day without me. I came in handy when it was time to buy the sweatshirt.
