College can be confusing and intimidating. If you are the parent of a newly admitted college student and curious about what college life is like, this course is for you.

While specific college will, no doubt, provide additional orientation material, this course provides some basic information about what life might be like at a large American University.

The course is divided into 4 weeks/8 lessons, which provide an overview of the different aspects of college life. If you were just watching the videos and looking at some of the links, the whole course would take about 4-5 hours.
