Welcome to the college application season! This time of year can be incredibly stressful and confusing for some students. So many decisions to be made when it comes down to picking the right colleges. Figuring out how far from home they are willing to travel is an absolute must. Sometimes, students decide they need to get as far away from their parents and hometown as possible; however, this distance can actually lead to students feeling lonely, homesick, or even frustrated at college, especially when they can’t get home as often as they would like.

Taking into consideration the distance a college is from home should be as important as deciding on the price, major, and social settings of a student’s future school. If your student isn’t planning (or allowed) to bring a car to campus their freshman year, then it is critical to scope out nearby airports, train stations, and bus stations to make sure future transportation is convenient and reasonably priced. Better to have these open conversations now versus waiting and discovering later that what your student thought they wanted, turns out to be a big mistake in the end.
