I agree with the comments above. However, it’s worth considering where you might attend. My understanding is that while it seems most kids are having a far from typical college experience, there are definitely colleges where kids are happy to be back on campus, even with COVID. I have heard of a lot of students who are happy enough with the current situation and living on campus that they prefer to be there rather than living in isolation at home.

I actually feel pretty optimistic that next fall, things will be a lot better on college campuses, even if they aren’t fully back to normal. In your shoes, I would learn as much as possible about what the college is doing to keep kids happy and engaged during this time. There is definitely a LOT of variation in how colleges are handling the situation.
