Is there ever an appropriate time for the parent to contact the academic advisor directly?
Yes, but please be cognizant of FERPA regulations. These federal regulations limit what an advisor can discuss with parents without your son/daughter’s permission. If your son/daughter is sick or is expected to miss class for any length of time, it is important to contact their academic advisor for assistance in notifying their instructors.
