S TA R T I N G A N A C A D E M I C C A R E E R What an exciting and challenging time! Your student is settling into their new home, adjusting to their class schedule, finding their way around campus and forming new friendships. Their first few weeks at UCF will be thrilling, but may also bring challenges. Separation from family and hometown friends brings the need to find a new support system. Students may also wonder how they will get along with new roommates and professors. They may interact with others who have beliefs and values different from their own. They will also learn it’s critical they make good decisions — how much to study, whether or not they will become involved in co-curricular activities, or how many hours a week they will spend at a part-time job. It may seem that this is a lot to cope with so early in a college career, but research shows that students make these types of decisions and establish corresponding patterns of behavior within the first two weeks of classes. The good news is there is a world of possibilities open to students, with the assistance of many staff and services, to help them become successful at UCF. The best thing you can do as a parent or family member is to maintain consistent communication; ask questions about their activities, classes and new friends; be understanding — and let them know how much you care.

DEAL WITH NEW BEGINNINGS While the start of the new academic year is an exciting time for students, often family members are the ones who suffer from separation anxiety. Here are some recommendations: Be supportive and encouraging to offset any fears or concerns about new beginnings and your student’s first year at UCF. Learn about the numerous services UCF offers to assist your student in their success — and encourage your student to use them. Stay informed by signing up for our monthly newsletter at fye.sdes.ucf.edu/ parents. Encourage your student to connect with their academic advisor and to get involved. Establishing these connections will bring you comfort that they have a support network at UCF. Plan your next visit to campus. Family Weekend is a great time to visit. Start a new tradition with siblings still living at home. Family movie night? Fried chicken Friday? Weekly FaceTime chat with your UCF Knight?

How to : GET CONNECTED
September is a time of true adjustment to college life. Students are now responsible for their own time management and must begin to master their course load. This is also a time when students begin to realize the scope and nature of their new freedom and responsibilities. Encourage your student to use a planner to organize day-today activities and develop good time management skills. Urge your student to utilize their academic advisor, who can direct them to appropriate resources. The Student Academic Resource Center (SARC) can help with study skills and specific classes. Offer advice on how to handle peer pressure concerning alcohol and other issues that first-year students may encounter. Support can be obtained from UCF’s Wellness and Health Promotion Services, or Counseling and Psychological Services. Advise your student to talk with their professors. This not only assists with networking, but will also help them understand course content and faculty expectations.

How to :
SURVIVE MIDTERMS October means it’s time for midterms. By this time, your student has probably realized that college is not like high school, and stress may start to creep in. You should be on the lookout for: Self-doubt — Students may start to feel the stress of academic performance. Those who have not done well will begin to have doubts about their abilities and may be confused about why their current study and time management skills are not working. Homesickness — Students may express homesickness and plan to return home for an upcoming weekend. Enjoy this visit, but have a conversation about what schoolwork needs to be accomplished when they’re home, and allow time for this. Stress — Urge your student to attend campus events such as Homecoming, Spirit Splash, football games, intramural activities, theatrical performances and other social events. Stepping away from academics for something fun can help them recharge.

How to :
MAKE MAJOR CAREER CHOICES UCF students are encouraged to think about their Pegasus Path from day one. Your student is facing choices that will impact their career path, including what classes to take in spring and whether or not to change their major. Thanksgiving break is just around the corner, which is a time to rest and recharge, allowing your student to reconnect with their family and friends. Advise your student to utilize Career Services to assist in career development, discuss majors, find work experience and develop a résumé. The Office of Experiential Learning can also assist with internships and service-learning. Sit down with your student and explore resources provided through MyPlan (ucf.myplan. com) and discuss their assessment results and/or questions with Career Services. Is your student showing more interest in graduate school? The Office of Undergraduate Research can help expand their academic experience at UCF.

SURVIVE FINALS... AND THE LENGTHY VISIT HOME In December, there are many things competing for your student’s time. Preparations for final exams and papers must be balanced with seasonal parties, religious observances, holiday volunteer service projects and wanting to spend as much time as possible with friends before break. Celebrate the victory of a successful fall semester or heal the wounds of a tough transition. What goals should your student set for the spring? What should they do differently? What good practices should be continued? Allow your student to come home and rest no matter what the circumstances may be. Your understanding and support may be needed more now than when they left back in August. Students are looking forward to returning home for an extended period, but recognize they may also be anxious about returning to the structures of parents and curfews. Have an open conversation about your expectations.

How to : LAUNCH THE NEW TERM
Happy New Year! January brings a new semester and a new start. The newness of being in college has worn off and the everyday grind of going to class has settled in. Here are tips for smoothing out the readjustment: Remind your student of the goals you discussed during the winter break. Can your student establish monthly milestones to help ensure they remain on track throughout the semester? With so many people on campus, students are vulnerable to the common cold and flu. Student Health Services provides access to doctors, an on-campus dentist and two pharmacies. If your student is on academic probation, urge them to set an early meeting with their academic advisor. The Office of First Year Advising and Exploration offers a variety of resources to help them explore strategies for success. Encourage students who seem stressed or depressed to utilize the professional counselors at UCF’s Counseling and Psychological Services.

Tip:
Students seeking an exercise regimen can access the Recreation and Wellness Center, which offers intramural sports, sports clubs, outdoor adventure, fitness, aquatics, and wellness and health promotion.
How to :
REINFORCE SMART ROUTINES Show your student some love this month with a care package! Fuzzy slippers, a movie theater gift card, UCF gear, homemade treats, Disney tickets, a new computer, a car... OK, maybe that’s a bit excessive. Encourage your student to hang in there a few weeks before spring break. Talk to your student about smart spring break decisions, especially in reference to finances and safety. As with many things, this is all part of the college experience — a newfound responsibility for themselves. Urge your student to begin preparing for midterm exams. How are those goals coming? Is a new class giving your student difficulty? Recommend they seek help outside of class through SARC or their professor.
The Parent and Family Fund supports important opportunities for current students. Established by UCF parents and families, this fund keeps the Student Union open 24 hours a day during finals week, provides crisis support for students’ emergencies, assists the Knights Helping Knights Pantry, provides numerous grants that promote career development and student growth, funds scholarships, and so much more.

How to : PREPARE FOR YEAR TWO
March includes spring break, midterms, warmer weather and an array of decisions related to year two. There are financial aid deadlines, summer plans to consider, living arrangements to be made for next year, and summer and fall course registration. Here are some resources: Discuss summer plans. Many students choose to go home and take courses at their local college or university. Students attending a Florida state college or university can fill out an online transient form through floridashines.org. Outof-state or private institutions will require a paper transient form that can be picked up from the UCF Registrar’s Office. Students should meet with their academic advisor to determine the type of courses to take over the summer. Time to get a job? Your student can search for part-time jobs through KnightLink with Career Services. Utilize the resources provided by Neighborhood Relations and Safety Education to learn about life off campus and things to consider in choosing the right place to live.

How to : FINISH STRONG
It’s the home stretch! Year one at UCF is almost complete! There are many academic challenges to meet before your student’s work is complete. Final papers, projects and exams occur at the end of the month. Registration for the next semester should be completed to secure a course schedule. Communication will be critical this month. Continue to be supportive and provide encouragement for your student to stay on course as the semester draws to a close. Advise your student to begin preparation for finals well before finals week begins and not to procrastinate — get papers and projects completed early. Encourage your student to seek advice from their academic advisor or a career counselor if they haven’t chosen a major or are unhappy with their current selection. Tip: Inquire about courses they have registered for and trust your student and the academic advisor’s recommendations. They’re professionals!

How to :
TURN AN ENDING INTO A NEW BEGINNING May marks the end of your student’s first year at UCF and is a great time for self-reflection. Did your student accomplish their personal and academic goals? Did they make friends? Did they get involved in activities? Did they properly estimate the costs associated with attending UCF? Talk about these things together. If your student did well over these past 10 months, they should be congratulated for a job well done. Be supportive and communicate your expectations of them being home for summer. Be prepared for changes in your relationship that may signal their growing maturity and remind yourself that they’re trying to make their own way in the world. Create a master plan for year two at UCF. Establish a budget. Discuss new living arrangements. Set academic goals. Reinforce the importance of time management. Contact Student Development and Enrollment Services at 407-823-4625 for on-campus resources.
