With a bachelors program at least he can take the credits after the first semester just in case…



He may not pass all of his classes. That one semester with a really low gpa can take a long time to bring up. It’s very easy to blow it the first semester, even with kids who want to be there.

I can only imagine the stress level of him applying to colleges and then this change of plans. I would be looking at ways to compromise as well but at the end of the day, it’s up to the student to make it worthwhile.

Best of luck to all of you.
