While it may be the student who gets admitted to college in the end, they aren't the only ones with a hand in the process.

From those initial Google searches to campus visits and beyond, parents and families are discovering and learning right alongside their student. On this episode of College Admissions Insider, we're taking a closer look at the parent and family experience.

We'll talk about the role that parents and families play in the college search process. 

Our guests are two parents who also happen to be admissions professionals at Bucknell. Lara Schmitt ’20, P’26 is assistant director of admissions for access & outreach, and Brett Basom P’22 is associate director for international recruitment.
