4 tips for parents and caregivers who want to go to college

Waukecha Wilkerson is a mom, a small business owner and a tutor when any one of her three kids is struggling with math homework.

They highlighted four things student parents and student caregivers should consider: Access to affordable childcare Overall cost, and timeline of tuition payments Availability of academic advising Flexible class scheduling |
