With Family Weekend quickly approaching, many students may be getting a campus visit. It is a great opportunity to show parents, guardians or friends around and to update them on how school is going. Here are some questions and talking points you might expect.

Student wth guardian.What is your favorite class and why?

Talking about your favorite class or professor is a good personal exercise too, it makes you really think about what you enjoy most academically here at CU Boulder.

What clubs and organizations are you in?

This is a fun way to share what your interests are outside of school.

How are your grades?

If you're having difficulties, be open about it. Family members, guardians and friends are part of your support system.

What do you mean you’re switching majors?

Bringing up this topic might make you nervous, but it's best to get it out in the open. Changing course can be a part of a successful academic journey.
