Can the Parent/Guardian Statement help if my child has an average academic record?

Yes! More often than not, it can be a determining factor in your child’s admission decision. Having good grades is certainly helpful, but admissions officers understand that not all students are defined by their grades and that grades don’t really give the full picture of a student. Thus, the parent/guardian statement is your chance to highlight what makes your child unique beyond the classroom. This is why it’s crucial to share true stories that show your child’s character. A heartfelt, thoughtful statement can give admissions officers a deeper understanding of your child’s potential.
