[quote=Anonymous]Keep in mind how little time college students spend in class compared with high school students. My HS junior leaves home at 7:15 am and doesn't get home till after 3 (and we live close to the school), so the earlier homework could begin is 3:30 every day (more like 6:00 in their sport's season). But my older college-student kids spend far few hours a week IN the classroom. They are not at big rah-rah schools but manage their study time well so they're able to also hold part-time jobs, do tutoring or babysitting, attend some games on campus, or in one of my kid's cases, be a D3 athlete there. If your kid does not manage time well then yes, handling college assignments and studying on top of fun stuff like football games will be difficult. There is far more unstructured time in college, and for many students it's an adjustment to learn how to succeed academically. [/quote]
