| This may have been stated already, if it has, I apologize.
If he decides that he still wants to go to school, I would strongly advocate for him to enroll in community college, get good grades, and then enroll in Phi Theta Kappa, (PTK), PTK is the honor's society for two year colleges. It's also the backdoor into a bigger school.
PTK carries a great deal of weight as it signifies that a student has done the work, made good marks, and volunteers within the community. Many four year colleges offer PTK transfer scholarships as well.
Along with it being cheapter, a community college will not appear on the bachelor's degree once he transfers...so, you get the benefit have paying a lot less money, with the appearance that all four years of college were done at one school.
PTK is the secret weapon of the community college. There is lots of scholarship money to be had.
