Early HS graduation & merit aid?

Ask him what he would be doing if his girlfriend wasn’t graduating. If he says he would be staying at the HS, I would discourage early graduation.

He hasn’t exhausted the possibilities academically or EC wise at his boarding school. You are paying for him to have those opportunities.

I’m not a Princeton adcom, but if he has not taken upper level courses and has no leadership EC positions, and is leaving HS early, I would be wondering why.
