Deviating from the truth should never be a thought that crosses our mind! We should always tell them the truth and be transparent. Give the student the reality of what they can expect from their program and what they can expect from the job market as a graduate.
Melissa,
Truth is essential in everything we do as responsible human beings. When we veer from the truth we set our self up to fail.

You should be telling the student the truth at all times. If a student finds out they aren't being told the truth there are negative consequences that effect the student and the institution. The student can lose sight of the value of their education and become a negative promoter for the institution.
Johnice,
Hi! Welcome to the forum. Integrity is the basis of education. As instructors we must practice truth and honesty in everything that we do. Once the student loses faith in us - it cannot be easily restored.
