Does he have an RA or something like that? It might help him if he can talk to kids more his own age. Also, if there are study groups he can join, that might help him focus.

I do think that reaching out is in order, and perhaps the Dean would be the first step, and could help point him in the right direction.

I’ve known lots of kids who have struggled in their first year. There are a lot of changes. And it is very hard to come to the realization that things may not come easy anymore.

Kudos to him for being able to recognize he needs help, and to you for your understanding.
