COVID 19 and Freshman in Fall 2020

Just a question for all the parents. After seeing all the colleges shut down and do work remotely, I would have to imagine that there may be a likelihood that schools will continue this way in the fall. I feel this way for a few reasons. First, many already cancelled their graduations, and 2. Overnight summer camps (or any camps for that matter) are not too promising.

That being said, my child hasn’t committed to any college yet. She knows where she wants to go. It’s out of state. I feel that perhaps for the first year, in light of this crazy health situation, wouldn’t it be prudent to choose something in state and closer to home? Whether they can go back to campus to reside or not? Or, does it not make a difference.

I’d love to hear some other opinions and comments.
