I just did a search using collegeboard.com for 2 year colleges that have available housing for their students and offer automotive engineering and technologies. I found 179 colleges, some of those probably will have on-campus housing. Maybe do a search yourself and come up with some alternatives for your soon-to-be son. Embrace his decision but see if you can steer him to a school that will give him more of the on-campus experience you are hoping for him and that might also offer some engineering courses that he will come into contact with that might peek his interest. You can set the search parameters to also include business courses. It might be a way you can be “involved” without being the one to be trying to change his mind.

oops see you have already done a search - that’s what I get for not reading the entire thread. COngrats on finding such a great option!
