| Several good suggestions are listed here. Without knowing your son's situation/grades/scores/overall ambition and drive, let's just assume he's a good student and just didn't have good coaching in the college application process.
1. had a friend who's child was in that position last year. They went to the high school principal and counselors and asked for assistance. The high schools do have relationships at some schools, so if your son is worthy of a college education, they have every reason to help him find a place. Friends son was admitted to a really great school and the school even found a scholarship to help with tuition.
2. Rolling admission schools are a good option, too. There are a lot of top notch state schools that aren't too hard to get into, but you can obtain a great education.
3. If your son is a little immature and has some growing to do, a year at the community college and a job could be a great option.
hope that helps you. every parent's nightmare is no admission letter! |
