“A book that needed to be written; the whole family needs support for a successful transition to college. Let the national experts on parent and family engagement in higher education guide your family's transition.”—Jodi Dworkin Ph.D., Department of Family Social Science, University of Minnesota
“The transition to college isn't just about your student. This step-by-step guide offers tips for a successful first year for the whole family.”—Marjorie Savage, author of You’re on Your Own (But I’m Here If You Need Me): Mentoring Your Child During the College Years
“This book provides families with proven tools to set expectations from a myriad of perspectives across all facets of the transition from high school to college with amazing detail.”—R. Yee, parent of three UCLA students and graduates
The first year of college is full of excitement and uncertainty for students and parents.
Updated for the 2025-26 school year!
The 2025 college experience will be different from anything a parent might have experienced themselves, or anything they have experienced with other children, as each college student’s journey is unique. Sending a student to college can change your family dynamics, your household structure, and the way you spend your time and money. And there are additional unknowns as students begin college in 2025.
Parental support of students means even more today.
College Ready provides practical guidance on what should be done during the summer, during drop-off, and the entire academic year. College Ready addresses topics that parents think most about. Chapters provide expert guidance on top-of-mind concerns including packing, money, staying connected, promoting responsible independence, and supporting academic success.
College Ready is action-oriented and includes a Glossary of commonly used college terms and Checklists so you don’t forget anything and don’t do things you shouldn’t!
And the book is full of ideas on how to start those tough, but very much needed, conversations. Not only will having these conversations assist you in your college preparations, but they will also open new lines of communication that can continue during the school year. College Ready 2025-26 is for parents, family members, caregivers, siblings, mentors, and any supporters of a soon-to-be college student.
College Ready is edited by Chelsea Petree, Ph.D., who is the Director of Parent and Family Programs at the Rochester Institute of Technology. Each contributor to College Ready is a current or former college administrator who has worked extensively with parents and families of students. They are all members of AHEPPP: Family Engagement in Higher Education, the only professional association in the world dedicated to parent/family involvement in the college experience. These contributors are experts in the field overall and in the chapters they penned.

Descrizione dello Store
With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.…
