Synopsis:

This book explains everything you need to know when your child goes to university, from finding accommodation, packing and budgeting, to coping with homesickness, exam stress and the changes at home now your student is finally off your hands (at least during term time). Around 400,000 people a year now apply for full time undergraduate courses. Advice on how to choose a university isn't difficult, but parents want to know how to prepare their child and themselves both emotionally and practically. This book, written by a parent with two children at university, explains everything from finding accommodation, packing and budgeting, to coping with homesickness, exam stress and the changes at home now your student is finally off your hands (at least during term time).

About the Author: Jane Bidder is a professional journalist and author who has written extensively for parents. When her first child went to university in 2002 she realised what a profound lack of information exists for parents about how to tackle this major step, either for themselves or for their child. Her second child is now also at university.
