We are currently seeking Georgia Tech parents and family members to sit on the Student and Parent Panel during FASET 2017. New parents and families attending FASET will be able to ask questions to panel members about their Georgia Tech experience. Both local and out-of-state family members are encouraged to volunteer. If you are an out-of-state family member and will be in Atlanta during the times listed below, we would love you to share your experiences with new families!

Topics might include:

  • Sending your student to a campus located in an urban area
  • Prepping your student for the transition to college life
  • Setting expectations with your student about communication – how often and when
  • Discussing money management with your student, including how much the first year really costs
  • Learning about the appropriate resources available for your student when he/she asks for help
  • Encouraging your student to get involved
