That’s a really tough call. I think it feels that way right now since there are so many unknowns. How far is the out of state option? Would it be difficult to get home quickly if necessary?

I would have a hard time paying tuition for an out of state option or private school. In my opinion, the purpose of paying the higher tuition for those options is to have the full experience and immerse themselves in the environment. If school is closed and they are taking classes online, what is the point of paying the higher tuition?

I have a S21 and we are narrowing his list to a place that has a direct flight home. Even in normal circumstances, that is important if there is a family emergency or if he wants to come home for a long weekend.

Is it possible to reserve a spot at more than one place and then make the call later this summer when you have more information and an idea of what is happening?
