My D was younger too when she went off to college in another city. She had that moment, as well, that "is this really happening?‘’ trepidation just before submitting her first application. I think it’s normal for many kids regardless of their age. It will probably pass. If it doesn’t pass, when acceptances start rolling in, he should look into which schools would allow him to defer a year and hold a place for him.

Good luck and stay positive!
