CIA Parent Pod

Season 4 kicks off! New episodes each week for first year parents (and upper-class student parents that need some refreshers!). Once the school year begins, new episodes once a month!

For some, Thanksgiving is the first time that your student has been home since August. Could be, a lot has changed in your student... and you.  Here from college parents who work at CIA, and some of their advice to navigate these changes. 

Dr. Matt has Marlon Jones, Director of Financial Aid, on the pod to talk about renewing your FAFSA! He discusses changes in the process, timelines, and balancing getting involved in the FAFSA process while allowing for your student to take on the responsibility of their financial aid.  The Parent Pod is now a monthly podcast (with the exceptions of some surprise content in  between)! 

Welcome Andrea Specht, our new Associate Director of Student Life and Campus Engagement! She joins Dr. Matt on the parent Pod to talk about her background, goals that she has for student involvement, and gives an update on all of the great programming going on for students at CIA! 

We are back people! What a crazy start to the semester. But how fitting that the first Parent Pod of the year would be about the Career Fair! Listen to Dr. Smith as he talks to Lauren Conway, Director of Career Services about the upcoming Career Fair and the ways CIA prepares student to put their best foot forward!
