Hey guys,
My parents are flying me out to Chicago from SLC to go to one of the Wildcat Days. They aren’t able to make it. Is this an event I can attend by myself or is it expected that parents come too?
Thanks
You can go alone. In fact, I was glad to be there without my mom when I went last year.
Just came back from Wildcat Day and many kids were without parents. I suggest making sure you try to go to a class.
Good to know, thanks. Did most people have their parents with them? Looks like mine might actually be able to make it.
@Cubbybear idk cuz i was only socializing with people who didn’t have their parents by their side. Their parents might’ve just not been present at those moments. Whenever I saw parents with their kids, the kid was just tagging along with the parent, rather than socializing with other prospective students, current students, professors etc.
My D attended it mostly on her own (we live nearby) and I dropped in for just one seminar. Try to spend some of the day on your own so you can hear your own thoughts/vibe without distraction from others’ input. This should help you get a better feel for NU.
