Following on from this, if he is doing architecture as an earlier thread suggests, sequencing could very well be an issue. This will very much depend on the structure of the program, which can vary quite widely between colleges, but I have seen a few colleges say transfers for architecture are only considered for fall because of this. Transfer credit might also be an issue. Complicating matters, some schools will require a portfolio for transfer. (If he decided on another major then this is not relevant.)
