I concur with the “live away, but close to home” suggestions.

If there’s a college within about an hour’s drive, the weekends don’t have to be an all-or-nothing thing.

Your child can come home and do laundry and touch base on Friday night, and be back for whatever is going on on Saturday night!

For the child that is inclined to come home, this arrangement keeps them more in with the college goings-on than when they come have a 3 hour drive, leading them to leave on Friday afternoon and not go back until Sunday PM.
