While students need your support and advice, this is one of their first significant adult decisions. Encourage your student to have confidence in their abilities, and give them the authority to be in charge of the process.
When starting this process, it's ideal to have a discussion about what role each person will play and necessary boundaries. Consider:
How and when will you discuss universities and university options? Are time limits needed?
What are the expectations of each person involved?

Each year the AISD Future Planning Counselor asks parents to provide information about their son or daughter. This will help your child’s Counselor gain a more complete picture of your soon-to-be high school graduate. This information may be used in a counselor recommendation for students applying to universities worldwide. The counselor recommendation is a unique opportunity to add information or explain a circumstance otherwise not revealed in school records, student essays, standardized tests, or teacher recommendations. If there is something you feel is important to share, please include this.
