Grant’s direct answer
Yes. When a parent is highly involved, HomeBase is comfortable using a three-way welcome call with the graduate, parent, and HomeBase advisor. If both parents are actively involved, both can participate when useful. The shared call gives everyone the same starting information about budget, move-in timing, office location, commute, neighborhoods, apartment preferences, and how the process works. Grant finds this especially helpful when parents have questions or concerns but still wants the graduate to remain central to the search. It can prevent parallel conversations and reduce confusion later.
