If student is less than 18 they need the parents signature
It is very important that the student has the parent signature if they are less than 18 and at the same time the parents can provide support and encouragement. I believe that this will help the student perform well and finish the degree program, in my experience parent involvement is extremely beneficial for young student success.
Cinthia,
When dealing with a minor, we must have the parents or guardians signature on the enrollment agreement. It is a best practice to have them always present when dealing with the student.

is required's parents or guardian will ned to co-sing the enrollment agreement.
Tuan,
Absolutely! You should not have any discussions without them present.

Alejandra,
No discussion should be held with a minor unless the parent or legal guardian is present.

I will explain to them that they need their parent or guardian to approve and sign paperwork.
We are not allowed to interview prospective student that are underage.
Alice,
That is an excellent practice. When a student is a minor we should not have any discussions or conduct any business without their parent or legal guardian present.

I would never see a student that is less than 18 years of age to come in to see me without the parents or legal guardian because they would also need to co-sign the enrollment agreement of the student.
Margie,
I would highly recommend never speaking to a minor without the parent or legal guardian available. It is just good business practice to make sure everyone is there.
